Danger In The Daintree

As a naive young man I took to the Daintree Water skiing wild feeling so damn free Didn't know the danger lurking beneath Those crocs were lurking ready to feast I swam out in the creeks cast my nets wide Chasing Barramundi no fear to hide The river it whispered tales to tell But young and reckless I couldn't hear so well Oh the Daintree River wild and deep Where the secrets and the dangers quietly sleep I was just a boy with the world to see But those crocodiles were a watchin me I felt the tug the thrill of the catch But shadows in the water they started to scratch I thought I was safe just a fool's pride Till a warning cry rang from the riverside Life can be wild and nature's a beast Every young heart thinks it's been released Looking back now I see it clear The Daintree's warning I finally hear Oh the Daintree River wild and deep Where the secrets and the dangers quietly sleep I was just a boy with the world to see But those crocodiles were a watchin me Oh the Daintree River wild and deep Where the secrets and the dangers quietly sleep I was just a boy with the world to see But those crocodiles were a watchin me
