i am australian - the bushwackers lyrics

[verse 1]
i came upon a prison ship
bound down by iron chains
cleared the land, endured the lash
and waited for the rains
i’m a settler, i’m a farmer’s wife
on a dry and barren run
a convict, then a free man
i became australian

[verse 2]
i’m the daughter of a digger
who sought the mother lode
the girl became a woman
on the long and dusty road
i’m a child of the depression
and i saw the good times come
i’m a bushie, i’m a battler
i am australian

[verse 3]
i’m a teller of stories
i’m a singer of songs
i’m albert namatjira
and i paint the ghostly gums
i’m clancy on his horse
i’m nеd kelly on the run
i’m the onе who waltzed matilda
yes, i am australian
[chorus]
we are one, but we are many
and from all the lands on earth we come
we share a dream and sing with one voice
i am, you are, we are australian

[verse 4]
i’m the hot wind from the desert
i’m the black soil of the plains
i’m the mountains and the valleys
the drought and flooding rains
i am the rock, i am the sky
the rivers when they run
i’m the spirit of this great land
i am australian

[verse 5]
i came from the dreaming
from the dusty red*soil plains
i am the ancient heart
the keeper of the flame
i stood upon that rocky shore
i watched the tall ships come
when, for forty thousand years i’d been
the first australian
[chorus]
we are one, but we are many
and from all the lands on earth we come
we share a dream and sing with one voice
i am, you are, we are australian
we are one, but we’re many
and from all the lands on earth we come
we share a dream and sing with one voice
i am, you are, we are australian
