G'day g'day, how ya goin', what d'ya know, well strike a light

G'day g'day, and how ya go-o-o-in'

Just say g'day g'day g'day and you'll be right



Isn't great to be an Aussie

Takin' a walk along the street

Lookin' in shops or buyin' a paper

Stoppin' and havin' a yarn with people that you meet

G'day g'day, how ya goin', hat d'ya know, well strike a light

G'day g'day, and how ya go-o-o-in'

Just say g'day g'day g'day and you'll be right

G'day g'day, and how ya go-o-o-in'

Just say g'day g'day g'day and you'll be right

G'day g'day, and how ya go-o-o-in'

Just say g'day g'day g'day and you'll be right



G'day g'day, and how ya goin', what d'
