I wanna live, I wanna die, under the light of the great Southern Sky.
I wanna run, straight through the night, chasing the stars with a heart open wide - under a great Southern Sky.
There's a song you can hear it playing in a country town; the anthem of the young and free that's what I'm talking bout. Like flooding rains and overflows, desert plains and red dugouts walk abouts that take me home, a place that everybody knows.
Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh
In the state I'm in is on my mind.
Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh
In the place I live I'm so alive.
Toniiiiiightttttt:
I wanna live, I wanna die under the light of the great Southern Sky.
I wanna run, straight through the night chasing the stars with a heart open wide.
High on a plainnnnn, in thunder and raiiiiiiiinnn.
I wanna live, I wanna die, under the light of the great Southern Sky.
There's a spirit, can you feel it going in this country wide? From the burning sun in Arnhem land across the great divide.
Children singing out aloud: we are one and we are proud, the future's starting here and now, sing it all together now:
Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh
In the place I live I'm so alive.
Toniiiiiightttttt:
I wanna live, I wanna die under the light of the great Southern Sky.
I wanna run, straight through the night, chasing the stars with a heart open wide.
High on a plainnnnn in thunder and raiiiiiiiinnn.
I wanna live, I wanna die under the light of the great Southern Sky.
Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh

Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh
I wanna live, I wanna die, under the light of the great Southern Sky.
