Girt By Sea

(album: Honest People - 2014)

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, 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 looking 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, 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

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, 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
Yes, we're Girt By Sea, we're 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
