HEY MR ABORIGINE (M.BRAUND/P.CONNOLLY) 3.17

Walkabout, in a sacred land
Hey mr aborigine,
Come & live down by the sea
Hey mr aborigine,
Why won’t you be friends with me
Out in the outback
It’s a hard land
Play that digeredo
Teach me how to play it too

Maybe we could start a band
Children laughing hand in hand
Live in peace and harmony
Forget your troubles play with me

Maybe i could come to you
And you could show me what you do
Make a cup of billy tea
That should help us all to see

Government gives a hand
Even though they took your land
I’m sorry but i’m not to blame
Cos i belive we’re all the same

Maybe we could start a band
Children laughing hand in hand
We’ll live in peace and harmony
Forget your troubles play with me

Out in the outback, he ain’t never coming back
He ain’t never coming back……………
