Lyrics John Williamson

John Williamson

I Can't Feel Those Chains Any Longer

I can't feel those chains any longer, can you?

I'm footloose and free

I can't see the sense in red, white and blue

It's still Union Jack to me

We're drifting in the ocean alone now

Like a beautiful ship at sea

I can't feel those chains any longer

I love this big country

So I'll raise my glass to the Diggers

Jump like a kangaroo

Stare 'em in the eye like an emu

I'll always be true blue

Have you ever spoken to a gumtree?

What am I trying to say to you?

Love this place as half as much as I do

And your a true blue too

Hey!

I can't feel those chains any longer can you?

I'm footloose and free

I can't see the sense in red, white and blue

It's still Union Jack to me

We're drifting in the ocean alone now

Like a beautiful ship at sea

I can't feel those chains any longer

I love this big country

So come on lets get on with the shearing

Make a little wool and wine

There's no gold at the end of the rainbow

No fruit without the vine

You've gotta be fair dinkum

Coz that's the way it has to be

Or there won't be enough to build a doghouse

C'mon sing this song with me

So I'll raise my glass to the Diggers

Jump like a kangaroo

Stare 'em in the eye like an emu

I'll always be true blue

Have you ever spoken to a gumtree?

What am I trying to say to you?

Love this place as half as much as I do

And your a true blue too

Hey!

Glory to Australia

Glory to the green and gold

We've come a long way since Botany Bay

And we're nearly two hundred years old

Glory to Australia

Glory to the green and gold

We've come a long way since Botany Bay

And we're nearly two hundred years old
