My Australia

G’day to kids across the world
I wish you could all see,
Our beautiful Australia,
It means so much to me.

From the gorgeous Snowy Mountains
To the brilliant bright blue sky,
And sunset over Uluru,
To the white sands of Bondi.

We love pavlova, vegemite,
And sauce on our meat pies,
But watch out at the BBQ,
Your snags may have some flies.

So come and see Australia,
Where life is really great,
There’s nowhere better in the world,
And we have no worries, Mate!
