I've always found such friendship in the Isa,
Like 'welcome back and let me take your hand.'

Like when he waves and said 'Welcome home'. Oh Yeah!
Yeah I've just come back to the city of Mt Isa,
And the old black road from the coast was hot and long,
Yeah the first mate that I met here in the Isa,
Took my hand and said 'Mate welcome home.'
