Don’t You Worry About That Lyrics by Slim Dusty

Natural High

1994

[Verse 1]
Here in Australia, we're still doin' fine
Or at least we are, most of the time
The birds still sing and the sun still shines
Down on the lucky country
Most Australian families
Own a car, a house, and a colour TV
God bless the finance company
For givin' us the money
Though one day we'll have to pay it back
But don't you worry about that
[Verse 2]
Here in Australia we're still ok
Though the damn recession won't go away
There's a million out of work they say
And the queues keep gettin' longer
It's the kids who suffer most of all
Straight from school onto the dole
But at least inflation's under control
Good news for overseas bankers
Our children's future's lookin' black
But don't your worry about that
[Chorus]
I'm a stranger here, I'm a stranger here
This used to be my home, now I'm a stranger here
[Verse 3]
Here in Australia we're independent types
Tryin' to get our priorities right
So we're gonna hold a plebiscite
Just to change our country's flag
Goodbye Union Jack your time has come
Though the new flag won't please everyone
Shows the Southern Cross set against the Rising Sun
That's bound to get ol' rooster's rag
Going one way down a blind track
But don't you worry about that
[Chorus]
I'm a stranger here, I'm a stranger here
This used to be my home, now I'm a stranger here
[Verse 4]
Here in Australia we're still true blue
Love our football and our barbecue
Love our koalas and our kangaroos
But we're sometimes forced to shoot 'em
We eat New Zealand lamb, wear Korean clothes
Play overseas hype on our radios
Drive Japanese cars, watch American TV shows
But we're still proud to be Australian
Hey you can't find Australia on the map
But don't you worry about that
[Chorus]
I'm a stranger here, I'm a stranger here
This used to be my home, now I'm a stranger here
[Outro]
This used to be my home, now I'm a stranger here
