Gone Is The Land Songtext / Lyric

I remember
When my mother led me
Through the bush
Where the kangaroos bound
Looking for the part of the yam
Looking out for the swam of the bees

Gone is the land
To the man of the mine
Can't you see what you have done to me
Changes coming, changes they go
The land is here for us
To have and to hold
It's not forty thousand Dollars or more
But forty thousand years of culture here

Happiness is a real thing a real thing
High tide is coming in
The pigeon calls the sharks are here
Gone is the land
To the man of the mine
Can't you see what you've done to me
