Bloody Bonzer Mate 歌詞
BLOODY BONZER MATE
When Hughie looked down on the earth at what he’d done so far
He said now that’s something and he then made Australia
He painted all the outside green and made the centre red
Filled it up with bush flies and this is what he said
He said "It's bloody bonzer mate bloody bonzer mate "
He stepped back to admire his work and reckons it was great
From Cooee up to Canberra from the west of the Eastern States
Betcha life Australia bloody bonzer mate
Well then he really got stuck in it didn’t take him long
Creating plains and mountain ranges creeks and billabongs
And soon the place was over grown with eucalyptus trees
And wattles bloomin’ everywhere an’ Hughie was quite pleased
He said “It’s bloody lovely mate bloody bonzer mate ”
The best thing that I’ve ever done the others just don’t rate
From Darwin down to Dargo from the west of the Eastern States
Betcha life Australia it’s bloody bonzer mate
Now all the place required was an animal or two
So he made ecidnas bandicoots and Kangaroos
And even dogs that had no bark and birds that couldn’t sing
And last of all some humans just to keep an eye on things
They said it’s bloody bonzer mate bloody bonzer mate
Wandered ‘round awhile and then declared this place is great
From Uluru to Kakadu from the west of the Eastern States
Betcha life Australia it’s bloody bonzer mate
Instrumental
Old Hughie did a ripper job when he made this ole country
There’s nothing like it anywhere but this you must agree
So now it’s up to all of us to see it stays that way
And take care of Australia so our grandchildren can say
You know it’s bloody bonzer mate bloody bonzer mate
Any way you look at it you’d have to say first rate
From Carlton to Kalgoolie from the Gulf to the Garden States
Betcha life Australia it’s bloody bonzer mate
You know it’s bloody bonzer mate bloody bonzer mate
Of all the places in the world oh this one takes the cake
From Carlton to Kalgoorlie from the Gulf to the Garden States
Betcha life Australia it’s bloody bonzer mate
