John Williamson I Can't Feel Those Chains Any Longer Lyrics

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
Theres no gold at the end of the rainbow
No fruit without the vine
You've gotta be fair dinkum
Coz thats 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
