lyrics

(1)
This world in which we live in
Keeps changing every day
From politicians down the road
The music that we play
But stay with me a moment
Just till we address
The pioneers of our sport
Who’ve fought to gain success

Feel the power of the wind
The shifting of the tide
The power from with in
Each time that you collide
Use the power of the swing
To help you feel alive
To sink or swim, to lose or win
It’s in you to decide.

(2)
At primary it was easy
Gender didn’t apply
But once we hit our teenage years
Games would pass us by
Then in the 90’s this all changed
Upon consideration
Now we’ve over 20 clubs
Our own Association

Feel the power of the wind
The shifting of the tide
The power from with in
Each time that you collide
Use the power of the swing
To help you feel alive
To sink or swim, to lose or win
It’s in you to decide.

(3)
The level of commitment
And constant aspirations
The aches, the pains, the breaks, the sprains
Display our dedication
Two decades now behind us
Like a wildfire not slowing
Flames now tear across the pitch
Momentum is still growing

Feel the power of the wind
The shifting of the tide
The power from with in
Each time that you collide
Use the power of the swing
To help you feel alive
To sink or swim, to lose or win
It’s in you to decide

Middle 8 vocals
Ah Ah Ah

(4)
The white lines before us
The old guards’ loyalty
Now rejoice in the fact
We’ve changed our history
Songs like The Caman Man
Sing of wood swinging brothers
But here’s to our daughters, our sisters,
Our wood swinging mothers

©
Feel the power of the wind
The shifting of the tide
The power from with in
Each time that you collide
Use the power of the swing
To help you feel alive
To sink or swim, to lose or win
It’s in you to decide
