Down Under Lyrics by One Drop

Black Book Diaries

2012

[Verse 1]
Traveling in a fried-out Kombi
On a hippie trail head full of zombie
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast
And she said

[Chorus]
Do you come from a land down under?
Where women glow and men plunder
Can’t you hear can’t you hear the thunder
You better run you better take cover

[Verse 2]
Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gavе me a Vegemitе sandwich
And he said

[Chorus]
I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover

[Verse 2]
Lying in a den in Bombay
With a slack jaw and not much to say
I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me
Because I come from the land of plenty?"
And he said

[Chorus]
Do you come from a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover

Living in a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover
