Stolen Country Blues - the most recently written song on the EP (2021) - speaks of Australia healing from the wounds of western colonisation and coming together for a positive shared future.

Lyrics

Hear me singing, hear me moaning, the blues on my horn
Hear me growling, hear me howling, the night until dawn
Hear the blues of this country - since the day I been born

Won't hear me laughing - hear me crying - such stories I've heard
When the country, was a-stolen, and culture was burned
Hear the blues of the people - oh what lessons we've learned

Hear the people, are a talking, and making new friends
Yes, the people are a-telling, their tales to the end
For the blues of this country - time for making amends

Now we're walking, back together - your hand in my hand
Yes we're talking, now together - and making new plans
For the blues of this country - time for healing the land
