Warakurna |
| There is enough for everyone |
| In Redfern as there is in Alice |
| This is not the Buckingham Palace |
| This is the crown land |
| This is the brown land |
| This is not our land |
| Some folks live in water tanks |
| Some folks live in red brick flats |
| There is enough, the law is carved in granite |
| It’s been shaped by wind and rain |
| White law could be wrong |
| Black law must be strong |
| Warakurna, cars will roll |
| Don’t drink by the water hole |
| Court fines on the shopfront wall |
| Beat the grog and save you soul |
| Some people laugh, some never learn |
| This land must change or land must burn |
| Some people sleep, some people yearn |
| This land must change or land must burn |
| Diesel and dust is what we breathe |
| This land don’t change and we don’t leave |
| Some people live, some never die |
| This land don’t change this land must lie |
| Some people leave, always return |
| This land must change or land must burn |
| Warakurna, camels roam |
| Fires are warm and dogs are cold |
| Not since Lassiter was here |
| Black man’s got a lot to fear |
| Some people laugh some never learn |
| This land must change or land must burn |
| Some people sleep, some people yearn |
| This land must change or land must burn |
