The Coorong Song

Stealing water from the Coorong's wrong If you've got a brain, well you know it ain't right Stealing water from the Coorong's wrong If you've got a heart, well you know it ain't right Steal a bit hear, Steal a bit there Don't take my drinking water away Feeding your cotton, Flooding your rice and Getting more greedy each day Precipitation, belongs to the nation Not just the greedy upstream So open up your dams, break your levee banks Let the Rivers Run again Let the rivers run Let the waters run free Let the rivers run Don't be - Greedy Irrigation gone mad, desolation so bad Time for political reign So open up your dams, break your levee banks Let the rivers run again Stealing water from the Coorong's wrong If you've got a brain, well you know it ain't right Stealing water from the Coorong's wrong If you've got a heart, well you know it ain't right Over flowing cities, not looking so pretty Do you live by virtue or vice? Climate changeability - agricul' insanity Levee banks cotton and rice Precipitation, belongs to the nation Not just the greedy upstream So open up your dams, break your levee banks Let the Rivers Run again Let the rivers run Let the waters run free Let the rivers run - Just do it Steal a bit hear, Steal a bit there Don't take my drinking water away Feeding your cotton, Flooding your rice and Getting more greedy each day Precipitation, belongs to the nation Not just the greedy upstream So open up your dams, break your levee banks Let the Rivers Run again Let the rivers run Let the waters run free Let the rivers run - Just do it Stealing water from the Coorong's wrong If you've got a brain, well you know it ain't right Everybody sing the Coorong song And save our rivers with all of your might
