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
