female vocals
Warm
subtle shaker
Indigenous folk-pop with female vocals
steady fingerpicked acoustic groove and soft hand percussion; verse stays spare with close-mic lead and a low harmony shadow
pre-chorus opens with breathy doubles and a rising clap pattern
chorus lands warm and earthy with stacked vocal thirds and a chant-like refrain. Use a wooden stomp
and a gentle didgeridoo drone in transitions; final chorus adds wide harmony and a brushed snare lift. Intimate
organic mix with crisp acoustic detail.

Тексты
[Verse 1]
I wake with the magpies
Under the red dust sky
Grandma’s hands on the doorway
Saying, girl, walk proud and high
I carry my name like water
In a tin cup by my side
Every road got a memory
Every scar got a guide
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hear that old call
In the creek and the cane
It pulls me back, pulls me back
Through the sun and rain
[Chorus]
Keep me on the home ground
Keep me where I belong
Red dust in my sandals
And your old song
Keep me on the home ground
Say my name, say it true
I am here, I am strong
I’m coming back to you
[Verse 2]
My auntie laughs like thunder
At the table by the stove
Uncles tell the long tales
Of the ones who made the road
I plant my feet in the hard earth
Let the wind braid through my hair
If the world tries to fold me
I remember who is there
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hear that old call
In the creek and the rain
It pulls me back, pulls me back
To my blood and name
[Chorus]
Keep me on the home ground
Keep me where I belong
Red dust in my sandals
And your old song
Keep me on the home ground
Say my name, say it true
I am here, I am strong
I’m coming back to you
[Bridge]
I’ve been down the long road
With a heavy, restless heart
But the stars over Country
Never let me drift too far
So I bow to the morning
I let the old ways sing
One breath, one promise
One girl, one flame
[Chorus]
Keep me on the home ground
Keep me where I belong
Red dust in my sandals
And your old song
Keep me on the home ground
Say my name, say it true
I am here, I am strong
I’m coming back to you
I wake with the magpies
Under the red dust sky
Grandma’s hands on the doorway
Saying, girl, walk proud and high
I carry my name like water
In a tin cup by my side
Every road got a memory
Every scar got a guide
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hear that old call
In the creek and the cane
It pulls me back, pulls me back
Through the sun and rain
[Chorus]
Keep me on the home ground
Keep me where I belong
Red dust in my sandals
And your old song
Keep me on the home ground
Say my name, say it true
I am here, I am strong
I’m coming back to you
[Verse 2]
My auntie laughs like thunder
At the table by the stove
Uncles tell the long tales
Of the ones who made the road
I plant my feet in the hard earth
Let the wind braid through my hair
If the world tries to fold me
I remember who is there
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hear that old call
In the creek and the rain
It pulls me back, pulls me back
To my blood and name
[Chorus]
Keep me on the home ground
Keep me where I belong
Red dust in my sandals
And your old song
Keep me on the home ground
Say my name, say it true
I am here, I am strong
I’m coming back to you
[Bridge]
I’ve been down the long road
With a heavy, restless heart
But the stars over Country
Never let me drift too far
So I bow to the morning
I let the old ways sing
One breath, one promise
One girl, one flame
[Chorus]
Keep me on the home ground
Keep me where I belong
Red dust in my sandals
And your old song
Keep me on the home ground
Say my name, say it true
I am here, I am strong
I’m coming back to you
