lyrics

OHAU – THE LATE STARTERS

VERSE 1:
A nice and icy aqua stream
Lived twice and thrice in an alpine dream
The tempting pool that you can’t jump in
For the welcome fool with the cheeky grin

VERSE 2:
A visual vein of our national power
Flows freely powerfully every hour
The southern strength of a clean green team
Sees a crystal sky with no smoke seen

CHORUS
Ohau
O how you are so blue
Ohau
O how you are so blue
Ohau
O how you are so blue
Ohau
O how you are so blue

VERSE 3:
A feeding stream from a southern lake
Gives daily life for the fish we take
The leisure landscape for pleasure craft
Lay seaborne sights forward and aft

VERSE 4:
When Hops & Dobson fathered you
They did so from a glacial view
Provincial boundary cycling foundry
Shining light in MacKenzie country

CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
I don’t wanna get caught in the water with you x 4

CHORUS:

D G Asus4
First two bars quiet (drum sticks)
Next two bars all together

Outro:
So Blue, So Blue
