I remember
   When my mother led me
   Through the bush
   Where the kangaroos bound
   Looking for the part of the yam
   Looking out for the swam of the bees
  
   Gone is the land
   To the man of the mine
   Can't you see what you have done to me
   Changes coming, changes they go
   The land is here for us
   To have and to hold
   It's not forty thousand Dollars or more
   But forty thousand years of culture here
  
   Happiness is a real thing a real thing
   High tide is coming in
   The pigeon calls the sharks are here
   Gone is the land
   To the man of the mine
   Can't you see what you've done to me
