Welcome to Our Country
“The Message”
I’m Riverbank Frank
Living here on the river
Here is the message
I wish to deliver
We are one people
Here in Australia
Have to make it work
Or we’re the failure.
You and me
This culture thing
But we’re all the same
Under the skin
We can all share
Australia’s glory
I’m Wiradjuri/Gamiliroi
What’s your story?
The best thing about
Australia to me
Without a doubt
Is diversity
We’re all different
But we are all one
This is our place
In the sun.
I hope some day
That we all will see
That we’re the answer
You and me
Ain’t black or white
It’s humanity
Let’s work together
To end race insanity.
