[00:13.447]You look out your window at the cold grey dawn
[00:15.691]It's seven o'clock on a Monday morning
[00:18.198]Pour a cup of coffee, better make it a strong one
[00:22.692]Weather man on the radio says it going to rain
[00:25.939]And it's going to blow
[00:27.437]It'll be all right, it'll be all right, it'll be all right in the long run
[00:33.693]
[00:39.196]Australia marched out of Vietnam
[00:41.692]Out in the streets against Uncle Sam
[00:43.947]We won the fight, it was a long one
[00:48.198]Uranium demo the other way
[00:50.695]One of my mates got dragged away
[00:52.944]As they slammed the door I heard her say
[00:54.941]It'll be all right in the long run
[00:57.437]
[01:00.446]Italian bloke who works with me
[01:02.940]We swap laughs and company
[01:05.192]And he slapped me on the back
[01:06.694]He said "You're wrong, son
[01:09.444]This isn't the land I was told it would be
[01:11.696]It's not so equal and it's not so free"
[01:13.948]But it'll be all right, it'll be all right, it'll be all right in the long run"
[01:55.387]
[01:57.884]From the shadow of history a convict screams
[02:00.134]The shearers curse, the people dream
[02:05.343]We've taken some right turns, they've been the wrong ones
[02:07.093]Troop ships leave and the headlines blaze
[02:09.344]Australia remembers happier days
[02:11.346]And the faith lives on within the haze
[02:13.840]It'll be all right in the long run
[02:16.592]
[02:19.086]So you sit in your camp and you stare at the fire
[02:21.594]The doubts drop away as the hopes get higher
[02:23.844]And you sing to yourself
[02:25.088]It'll be all right, it'll be all right in the long run
[02:28.596]
[02:32.538]And the sun gives ground to a long cold night
[02:33.788]You screw your courage for another fight
[02:37.222]But you know in your heart
[02:37.720]But i'll be all right, it'll be all right, it'll be all right in the long run
[02:40.469]
[02:48.418]And the sun streams in with power and might
[02:50.416]And you look at your kids in a different light
[02:52.669]And you know in your heart as you kiss them goodnight
[02:54.919]It'll be all right in the long run.
