Hands across the water, winds across the sea
Sails upon the ocean, bring you on down with me
To the sunburned country, new land of the free
Oh sail across the water, with me

I love this sunburned country, I love it sweeping planes
It's rugged inspiration, no big dream without pain
You'll love this golden city, come share the spirit again oh
Sail across the water with me

refr.
Sail on down across the water, sail on down across the sea
Sail on down to Australia, come down to Australia with me oh
Sail across the water with me....
Sail on down across the water, sail on down across the sea
Sail on to Australia, sail on to Australia

Sails across the ocean, winds across the sea
Hands across the water, reach out for you and
God bless this golden country, come share the spirit with me, oh
Sail across the water, come sail across the water
Come down to Australia with me..... you and me....
