You look out your window at the cold grey dawn It's seven o'clock on a Monday morning Pour a cup of coffee, better make it a strong one Weather man on the radio says It's going to rain and it's going to blow But i'll be all right, it'll be all right, it'll be all right in the long run Australia marched out of Vietnam Out on the streets against Uncle Sam, We won the fight, it was a long one Uranium demo the other day One of my mates got dragged away As they slammed the door I heard her say It'll be all right in the long run Italian bloke who works with me We swap laughs and company And he slapped me on the back Said "You're wrong, son This isn't the land I was told it would be It's not so equal and not so freeBut i'll be all right, it'll be all right, it'll be all right in the long run"From the shadow of history a convict screams The shearers curse, the people dream We've taken some right turnsLetras de cancionesThey've been the wrong onesTroop ships leave and the headlines blaze Australia remembers happier days And the faith lives on within the haze It'll be all right in the long run So you sit in your camp and you stare at the fire The doubts drop away as the hopes get higher And you sing to yourself It'll be all right, it'll be all right in the long run And the sun gives ground to a long cold night You screw your courage for another night But you know in your heart But i'll be all right, it'll be all right, it'll be all right in the long run And the sun streams in with power and might And you look at your kids in a different light And you know in your heart as you kiss them goodnight It'll be all right in the long run.
