When the convicts arrived in Australia
|
The soldiers didn't have a lot to do
|
So for entertainment they made the convicts dance
|
While the soldiers piped a tune
|
|
It was the British domination quickstep
|
Quick step up your work, listen to the beat
|
They've got the power in their hands
|
And the load off their feet
|
|
100 years later, the governor was still on his seat
|
The peopl were farming and mining
|
The cockies ate the chaff
|
While the squatters ate the wheat
|
|
Two World Wars later, Rule Britannia began to die
|
Pig Iron Bob rocked the cradle
|
Yankee Doodle was the nation's lullaby
|
|
It's the yankee domination quickstep
|
Quick step up your work, listen to the beat
|
They've got the power in their hands
|
And the load off their feet
|
|
It's now the foreign domination quickstep
|
Quick step up your work, listen to the beat
|
They've got the power in their hands
|
And the load off their feet
|
