A Flag Of Our Own - John Williamson[00:00:00]
Ned Kelly came round to see me today [00:00:09]
I guess I was dreaming - oh [00:00:14]
Dumbfounded I couldn't think what to say[00:00:19]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh [00:00:24]
I beckoned him in but he shook his head[00:00:28]
He said "I'm a bit grubby and a bit poorly bred[00:00:32]
I'd rather we yarned out the back in the shed[00:00:37]
I can leave m' boots on that way"[00:00:41]
Well he took a stiff whisky and laid down his gun[00:00:56]
He said "I won't keep you long cause I've got to[00:01:00]
Run[00:01:04]
Got to ride to the mountains before night is done"[00:01:04]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh [00:01:10]
He said "word's got around 'bout the music you play[00:01:14]
You truly believe in the fair dinkum way[00:01:19]
That the bush must remain for our spirit to stay[00:01:23]
And we must have a flag of our own "[00:01:28]
He said "I learned long ago when I was still young[00:01:43]
Like the lizard that spits and sticks out his tongue[00:01:47]
Oh the way to get shot is to carry a gun[00:01:51]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh [00:01:57]
"There's a new world order " the leaders all shout[00:02:01]
And everyone's frantic they're gonna miss out[00:02:06]
And the red white and blues are still marching about[00:02:10]
Oh we must have a flag of our own"[00:02:14]
'Cause this is Australia and that's where we're from[00:02:39]
We're not Yankee side-kicks or second class Poms[00:02:43]
And tell the Frogs what they can do with their bomb[00:02:48]
Oh we must have a flag of our own '[00:02:52]
Cause this is Australia and that's where we're from[00:02:58]
We're not Yankee side-kicks or second class Poms[00:03:02]
And tell the Frogs what they can do with their bomb[00:03:07]
Oh we must have a flag of our own[00:03:11]
