    Western Girls Lyrics:
    First of all you have to make enough money
    Get your look right, feel right
    Get yourself into the perfect style
    Wear your heels high
    And your skirts tight
    Out on the weekend in the city lights
    Showing your friends you can
    Party all night
    But tinsel town at the crack of dawn
    Leaves you cold and wondering
    Where you could belong
    Now you're standing
    At the fork in the road
    All alone
    And wondering which way to go
    Any minute something's going to explode
    Break out you western girls
    One day soon you're going to
    Change the world
    Break out you western girls
    Hold your head up high
    Though you think
    That life will pass you by
    You are fine thing, never say die
    Get your face out of that magazine
    It won't keep you warm
    Another paper dream
    Another evening in a cafe' for two
    Another memory to haunt you
    Soon he's going to want to take you home
    Darlin' are you better off alone
    The clock is ticking
    But you still can't decide
    To turn around or go along for the ride
    Make up your mind because there is
    Nowhere to hide
    Where's there's life
    There's changes
    Destiny arranges something for you
    To hold on to.
    Dragon with the official music video for 'Western Girls'.

    this video was made in Melbourne (85?) by Evan English & Paul Goldman. From what I recall many young women working in offices were asked to act in the video with very little notice. They all did a great job. The performance part of the video was shot upstairs at the Corner Hotel, Richmond.

    Love the 80s music. Grew up listening to these bands, they'll never make music and songs these days like they did back then. Dragon, Sharon O'Neill, Jon Stevens, Golden Harvest, Uriah Heep, 10CC....classic!
