Jimmy Barnes - Last Frontier Lyrics
Pushin’ ever westward, across the great divide
Beyond the darling river
Towards the outback sky
The lawless and the brave, searchin’ for a dream
Where rivers once had been
They tried to follow nomads, like ghosts in desert dreams
And suffered in a sunburnt land…
Down in the last frontier
They sent them from the motherland
Into there greatest fear
To live and die for freedom’s cry
Down in the last frontier
A drover rides in search of work, across the sweeping plains
A farmer kneels in a hungry church
As his children prey for rain
Back in a land across the sea
They found another war
They asked the anzacs to believe
What there fightin’ for
They sent them to another land
Into there greatest fear
To fight and die for freedom’s cry
And for the last frontier
People in the lucky land, who searched for paradise
Are reachin’ out for somethin’ more
And don’t believe there lies
The promises of hope and work, still ringing in there ears
The hungry and homeless cry
Down in the last frontier

Jimmy Barnes Last Frontier Comments
Jimmy pulled me up on stage at the Bridgeway hotel singing this circa 91
This song is awesome. I wish there was a film clip
Great Album!
The great Neal Schon on lead guitar
Love Freight Train Heart, a really good album for when you're on the road.
He is a fabulous artist bought allready six albums in 6 months
Finally, 'recorded this song in the80's , from the Friday rock show on radio 1, never knew who sang this song as tape ( yes kids........ Cassette tapes !) ran out and stopped ....... So never knew the singer, but now I do 😃
I can't explain how much Jimmy's music moved me when I was a young man in the 80s and 90s.
The guy is a legend and has had some legendary musicians play with him.
This album is a jewel.
Thanks to the Internet I discovered Jimmy Barnes and these awesome songs I live in the states and he has become my favorite performer I wish I would have discovered him a long time ago he is just as good as the band's we have here
Co written by Jonathan Cain...great song!
Jimmy has gotten better with age.

nah way off mate.... It was Tobey Saint Mac Millon
You´re welcome! :) Happy x-mas buddy!
Brilliant. Thanks mate.
Who plays lead guitar on this? Is it Robin Riley?
Barnesy is the greatest!
This brings back memories...........London 1988, Royal Marsden Hospital and the love of my life brought this back from Australia. Changed my life. What a great singer. She's gone but I still have the music and the memories !!!
I can send you a copy if you like...on disc...
I have adored Jim since I was 14......(2012 sees me celebrate my 42nd birthday!! Faaaaarkk!). This is, without a doubt, his best song ever!! It should be the Australian anthem! Nothing short of fucking brilliant......and I have ALL his albums (including the rare B side tracks)...but this one is still my fave.
Have always said this song should be Australia's national anthem. My all time fave song of Barnesy's!
one of his best
@12fangs You are welcome!
@llph0enXll What I would give for a copy of that! I was starting to think my memory was failing me and I had only imagined that version as I have never been able to find it again. I too had it on casette many years ago.

@JackieKixx: Dunno... I just know one Live version. With an epic piano solo at the beginning. (about 2-3 Mins.) My dad had it on an old cassette. I just recorded it to PC but it has som jumps and errors because the cassette was very old.
@flamenkoit Agree with you! Long live " Jimmy Barnes" !!
@llph0enXll you mean the live version from " BARNSTORMING" ?
Very good song indeed... but the live version is WAY BETTER
@pauljohnson030174 Hell of a good song! ;)
@pauljohnson030174 That´s right my friend. He is a real rocklegend!
An absolute classic Aussie rock sock from an Aussie rock legend
I agree with you, Jimmy is very great and talent!! :) rock on!!
This is one of my faves. Thanks for uploading it :)
great song, but not the best of the album! :-)
