We can’t get to Asia Can’t get to New York or to Rome
Can’t even walk out our front doors to go more than 5 Ks from home
But I can get to Shepherd St though all the world is closed
Yes I can get to Shepherd St and that’s all I need to know
Everything’s in Footscray, every corner of the globe
Every fear and every joy every doubt and every hope
And I can get to Shepherd St after all the tears have flowed
Yes I can get to Shepherd St and that’s all I need to know

D Bm A G x 2
Through the door of Shepherd St I walk on down the hall
Through the lounge and kitchen and around the corner sprawl
We share our messy throbbing hearts in love’s expansive thrall
And in the end what is there more to hold us all to all
The world collapses round us, The rich refuse to change
Zealots don’t care if we all burn in some pure final flame
But I can get to Shepherd St where love has found a home
Yes I can get to Shepherd St and that’s all I need to know
The rich the poor the new the old every corner of the globe
though so many minds are closed/where no mind is enclosed/
