Lyrics
Opportunities are available in all walks of life in Australia So if
You're young and if you're healthy Why not get a boat and come to
Australia Australia, the chance of a lifetime Australia,
You get what you work for Nobody has to be any better than what they
Want to be Australia, no class distinction Australia,
No drug addiction Nobody's got a chip on
Their shoulder We'll surf like they do in the U.
S.
We'll fly down to Sydney for our holiday On sunny Christmas Day
Australia, Australia No one hesitates at life or beats around the
Bush in Australia So if you're young and if you're healthy Why not
Get a boat and come to Australia Australia sha-la-la-la sha-la-la-la
Australia sha-la-la-la sha-la-la-la Everyone walks around with a
Perpetual smile across their face Australia sha-la-la-la sha-la-la-la
Australia sha-la-la-la sha-la-la-la Everyone gets around and
Nobody can ever get you down We'll surf like they do in the U.
S.
We'll fly down to Sydney for our holiday
On sunny Christmas Day Australia, Australia
