Kangaroo Jack movie - Down Under lyrics

rate me

Song by Colin Hay<br /><br>

Traveling in a fried-out combie<br>

On a hippie trail, head full of zombie<br>

I met a strange lady, she made me nervous<br>

She took me in and gave me breakfast<br>

And she said,<br>

<br>

"Do you come from a land down under?<br>

Where women glow and men plunder?<br>

Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?<br>

You better run, you better take cover."<br>

<br>

Buying bread from a man in Brussels<br>

He was six foot four and full of muscles<br>

I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"<br>

He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich<br>

And he said,<br>

<br>

I come from a land down under<br>

Where beer does flow and men chunder<br>

Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?<br>

You better run, you better take cover<br>

<br>

Lying in a den in Bombay<br>

With a slack jaw, and not much to say<br>

I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me<br>

Because I come from the land of plenty?<br>

And he said<br>

<br>

Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah)<br>

Where women glow and men plunder?<br>

Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?<br>

You better run, you better take cover<br>

<br>
