travelling in a fried out kombie —,

Bm A Bm G A
she took me in and gave me breakfast, and she said
Chorus :
D A Bm G A
Do you come from a land down under—
D A Bm G A
where women glow and men plunder?
D A Bm G A

D A Bm G A
you better run, you better take cover—

He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich.
And he said:

Lying in a den in Bombay,

with a slackjaw and not much to say.

Because i come from the land of plenty."

where women glow and men plunder?
