Bend in the river, winding north
Mooloolah opens up her mouth
The black snake winds as the river always will
Life goes on when the water is still
Life goes on, life goes on when the work is all done
Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba
Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba
Life goes on, even when the waters are still
Left to the freeway, driving north
The glasshouse mountains legends bought
Surfboards in cars come as they always will
Even when the waters are still
Life goes on, love goes on when the work is all done
Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba, surfboards in cars
Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba, come as they always will
Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba, life goes on, even when the waters are still
The black snake winds as the river always will
Even when the water is still
Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba
From the edge of the world I can hear the water breathing
Her unmade bed is where I'll be sleeping
Mooloolaba
Even when the waters are still
