oh there's nothing like a sunday morning vegemite on toast
having all your rel's around
for a sunday roast
to top it off down under
what we all like most
is taking off your shoes and walking 'round the coast
cause
we're girt by sea
girt by sea
was your great
great
great
great
great
great
great
aborigine
or did he come by ship
well it's all the same to me
we're a dirty great big island
girt by sea
we got man-eating spiders
and twelve meter sharks
drop-bears
death adders in our national parks
watch out for crocodile's
tiger snakes and stingers
there's no place for cowboys
we call the ringers
where we're girt by sea
girt by sea
was your great
great
great
great
great

aborigine
or did he come by ship
well it's all the same to me
we're a dirty great big island
girt by sea
we got great lookin' shiela's and rough headed mates
two territories and six other states
tiger prawns and hu-mungous t-bone steaks
but we don't have no border wars
well there's wells
but they'll break
when you're girt by sea
girt by sea
was your great
great

aborigine
or did he come by ship
well it's all the same to me
we're a dirty great big island
girt by sea
there's the great southern rail way and southern cross at night
the great ocean road and the great australian bite
the great sandy desert and the great barrier reef
and the great dividing range
ooh my good grief
we're girt by sea
girt by sea
was your great

or did he come by ship
well it's all the same to me

was your great
