Every Little Bit Of Australia |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
We got the kindies and beginners at the primary school, |
Where the kiddies learn to read and write, |
We got the colleges and Universities for the ones that seem so bright, |
We got the technical trade school, |
Apprentices, for those who like to use their hands, |
Then all the rest left over get to sing in a rock 'n' roll bands. |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
We got the footie on a Saturday afternoon, |
Where everybody rants and raves, |
Weve got the big American super marts, |
Where the house husbands shop and save |
We got clubs and Tatisalls, TAB where we try to win a quid, |
But the telly and the all night radio, one of the best thing we ever did. |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
We got the Swan and the Torrens and the Brisbane too |
All the rivers run through the town, |
Weve Sydney Harbour, the Murray and the Yarra, |
Where the water is thick and brown, |
We got the Snowy and the Ord and Pine Gap, |
That was put there for our sake, |
But to bundle politicians in Canberra, |
Was the smartest move to make. |
Now the Aboriginal people have been here since dreaming time, |
With the birds and animals all their own |
Its a land as old as time, |
Weve got cities and towns, and migrant friends, |
A great Australian dream, |
So take all ya papers and tins and things |
And keep Australia clean. |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
Yeah, yeah, every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me, |
Every little bit of Australia is a little bit of you and me. |
