가사
[Verse 1]
I woke with the rain
On a zinc roof drum
Market smoke in the air
And the day came warm
Red dirt on my shoes
Coconut on my tongue
Kids run past the stalls
Like the whole world's young
[Pre-Chorus]
And I feel the ground
Under every step
Old songs in the hills
Still ain't left yet
[Chorus]
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
You pull me home
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
I sing your name
And I don't let go
[Verse 2]
From the coast to the highlands
The roads twist long
Misty morning ridges
Where the brass kids play strong
River light on faces
Laughing through the heat
Every hand I've shaken
Left a rhythm in me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I feel the ground
Under every step
Old songs in the hills
Still ain't left yet
[Chorus]
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
You pull me home
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
I sing your name
And I don't let go
[Bridge]
Sepik river running
Through my blood tonight
Shells and painted faces
Burning in my mind
Mountains keep on calling
Coastline answers back
When I lose my way
You bring me back
[Final Chorus]
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
You pull me home
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
I sing your name
And I don't let go
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
I sing your name
And I don't let go
I woke with the rain
On a zinc roof drum
Market smoke in the air
And the day came warm
Red dirt on my shoes
Coconut on my tongue
Kids run past the stalls
Like the whole world's young
[Pre-Chorus]
And I feel the ground
Under every step
Old songs in the hills
Still ain't left yet
[Chorus]
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
You pull me home
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
I sing your name
And I don't let go
[Verse 2]
From the coast to the highlands
The roads twist long
Misty morning ridges
Where the brass kids play strong
River light on faces
Laughing through the heat
Every hand I've shaken
Left a rhythm in me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I feel the ground
Under every step
Old songs in the hills
Still ain't left yet
[Chorus]
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
You pull me home
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
I sing your name
And I don't let go
[Bridge]
Sepik river running
Through my blood tonight
Shells and painted faces
Burning in my mind
Mountains keep on calling
Coastline answers back
When I lose my way
You bring me back
[Final Chorus]
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
You pull me home
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
I sing your name
And I don't let go
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea
I sing your name
And I don't let go
음악 스타일
World pop with a buoyant mid-tempo swing, hand percussion and crisp kick patterns; verse rides dry and close, pre-chorus opens with layered chants and rising toms, chorus lands on a wide singalong with stacked harmonies. Vocal is intimate and conversational, with echo doubles and gang responses on the hook. Ear candy includes drum fills, bird-call synth flutters, and a final lift. Bright, earthy, and punchy mix.
