“She’ll Be Right”Written by Dick Roberts

“She’ll be right” that’s what they keep telling me,“Don’t believe what their preaching on TV”Theres millions out of work so they say,A trillion in debt, and a war on its way.

“She’ll be right” that’s what they keep telling me,I’m just worried about, this once great country, Holdens gone, as has Australian Vegemite,Now foreign owned, lost, without even a fight.

Where are we going,where has our future gone,The mateship and the courage,To all stand strong.What happened to the pride,When we’d all sing, True blue and I am Australian.We’ve all been sold,To far off foreign lands.But “she’ll be right”We’re apparently in good hands.

“She’ll be right” that’s what they keep telling me,But now they want to shoot the poor old brumby,They cancelled ANZAC and Australia Day,Due to COVID, but let others have their way.

Where are we going,Where has our future gone,The mateship and the courage,To all stand strong.What happened to the pride,When we’d all sing,True blue and I am Australian.We’ve all been sold,To far off foreign lands.But “she’ll be right”We’re apparently in good hands.

Our country’s on a one way track,We have squandered,What put us on the map The lucky country,No longer can we claim,For those that fought and died,Was it all vain.

But “she’ll be right” that’s what they keep telling me,“Don’t believe what their preaching on TV”Theres millions out of work so they say,A trillion in debt, and a war on its way.But “she’ll be right”
