i'm an Aussie
i like me eggs over easy
with a stash of crispy bacon
i like to watch the cricket
and a lot of footy
i sit on me comfy couch
with me feet up and head back
im an Aussie
a fair dinkem beer drinkin Aussie
i like me legs hairy
i sure as anything
don't believe in the tooth fairy
i like to go down to the beach
and get me hair a nice sun bleach
i like a bit of steak on the bar-b
and a bit of shade under me pine tree
i'm in Aussie
a fair dinkem beer drinkin Aussie
i like to bring me buddies around
for a guys night out
and we can all stay up late
don't worry mate, the beers are my shout
we'll go back home and back to bed
nah... lets go fishing instead
thats what i wanna do
thats me
i'm an Aussie
a fair dinkem beer drinken Aussie
