Lyrics

Traveling in a fried-out combie On a hippie trail Head full of zombie I met a strange lady She made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said "Do you come from a land down under? Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run You better take cover" Buying bread from a man in Brussels He was six foot four and full of muscles I said, "Do you speak-a my language?" He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich And he said "I come from a land down under Where beer does flow and men chunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover" Lying in a den in Bombay With a slack jaw And not much to say I said to the man "Are you trying to tempt me Because I come from the land of plenty?" And he said "Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (Ooh yeah yeah) Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover"
