John Williamson - Billabong lyrics

rate me

Why don't you get out of it with me

I hope there's nothing wrong

In the way I turn on in your company

I hope you don't mind that I'm off my face over you

'Cause if you turn me away I don't know what I'd do

Oh Billabong (do-do-do-do-do)

Billabong (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

Plenty bamboo (didly-didly-didly...), a little water

Take a big deep breath (do-do-do-do-do)

And away we go (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

In a big canoo (didly-didly-didly...), up the river

There's something about the way you walk on by

It's the walk in your wiggle

Or the wiggle in your walk that caught my eye

I never forgot the day you said goodbye

Don't you think maybe it's worth another try

Oh Billabong (do-do-do-do-do)

Billabong (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

Plenty bamboo (didly-didly-didly...), a little water

Take a big deep breath (do-do-do-do-do)

And away we go (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

In a big canoo (didly-didly-didly...), up the river

I got rum in the fridge and a couple of jay-jay pails

A breeze comes through here every night, it never fails

We're two lonely people on nowhere trails

Maybe we'll get our wheels back on the rails

Oh Billabong (do-do-do-do-do)

Billabong (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

Plenty bamboo (didly-didly-didly...), a little water

Take a big deep breath (do-do-do-do-do)

And away we go (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

In a big canoo (didly-didly-didly...), up the river

One more time -

Oh Billabong (do-do-do-do-do)

Billabong (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

Plenty bamboo (didly-didly-didly...), a little water

Take a big deep breath (do-do-do-do-do)

And away we go (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

In a big canoo (didly-didly-didly...), up the river

In a big canoo (didly-didly-didly...), up
