"Down Under"
lyrics by Benjamin Newman
ttto: "Down Under" by Colin Hay and Ron Stryker

/ Am G Am FG / / / /

I'd been lost in the woods for hours
On a hippie trail, hands full of flowers
I met a strange man, he made me nervous
He took me in and gave me breakfast
And he said...

	/ C G Am FG / / / /

	I come from the land down under
	Of which the world can but wonder
	Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
	We'd better run, we'd better take cover

Hey, I should go or my mom will miss me
And don't you even think of trying to kiss me
Don't you know the way to a girl's heart?
He just smiled and gave me a pomegranate poptart
And he said...

	Won't you come to the land down under
	And witness all of its wonders?
	I know you can't stay much longer
	You'd better run home to your mother

Even so, if you find me pleasin'
You could visit me in another season
I said to the man are you trying to tempt me?
Because I come from the land of plenty
And he said...

	If you lived in the land down under
	You'd outshine all of its wonders
	You'd turn my winter to summer
	My realm would be yours to discover

	Be my queen in the land down under
	Reign over souls beyond number
	And when you go home to your mother
	You'll wake the world from its slumber
