South is cool, north is warm
May in Autumn is the norm
No Big Dipper or Evening Star
The Southern Cross tells me I’m far from home
With dingoes and koala bears
Land of kangaroos
Emus, wallabies and kookaburras in the old gum trees
And I’m falling for Australia
I’m singing “Cooee!” to the women of Australia
Say “G’day,” love your lingo
Full-on dykes, good on ya, girls
Mind those hooning daggy yobbos
What do you reckon? How you goin’?
Driving on the left-hand side
Love your big, wide, stroppy style
Rave on conversations…I couldn’t get a word in
Yahoo, Australia! Ta to Australia
Dingoes and koala bears
Land of kangaroos
Emus, wallabies and kookaburras in the old gum trees
And I’m falling for Australia
I’m singing “Cooee!” to the women of Australia
Four wheel drive through five creeks
When we visited the women’s land
How did they get that piano down three miles of rugged trail?
Sydney, Wallongong, Katoomba
Drive more than 2,000k
Canberra, New Castle, Lismore
Ended up in Byron Bay
Yahoo, Australia!
Aboriginal Australia
Oldest continent on Earth
Dream 100,000 years
Before the white invaders landed
Blood red earth, black for the people
Yellow for the golden sun
Banner of the tribal nations
Magic, timeless Australia
With those dingoes and koala bears
Land of kangaroos
Emus, wallabies and kookaburras in the old gum trees
And I’m falling for Australia
I’m singing “Cooee!” to the women of Australia
“Cooee-ee!” to the women of Australia
