A Mighty Big River
We used to have a mighty big river There a poet named banjo who wrote a legend about a ride. About a man on a horse, who was brave of course Part of our nations pride We used to learn the poem at school, I am hoping to hell we still do The man from snowy river means a lot to me and you
{chorus} {What about a might big river, used to flow wide and strong Thought we were clever to dam all the water but we all know today we were wrong.
We used to have a might big river, rowed a little boat to get home. You know what I wish, I wish we left the snowy river alone.}
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com That's a romantic notion, a dreamer's luxury Soon we will be paying for rain they add on the GST You can't have a river these days if they don't get a piece of the pie But the snowy river people are saying we can't let the snowy die
{chorus}
Now Banjo don't roll over, we haven't given up the fight I have a deep down feeling the snowy people are right We ought to be ashamed as human have to cheat to leave her high and dry to dribble like a little creek
{chorus}
