Over The Border

Skyhooks

Well I've spent too long in the deep north,

the land of the big peanut

It ain't that great in the Police State

They burn down the hippies huts



They turn back the clocks a decade

they bust you for no reason

The sun shines the whole year 'round

The shotguns' still in season



Get me over the border, get me over the border

Down to New South Wales



The girls' are sweet & juicy

Oh so brown & blonde

but watch out for the young ones

You wont get no bond



They don't treat you too well



Down in Bogga Road jail

Make a break,make a break for the border

with the dogs running on your tail



Over the border put some wind in my sails

Over the border put some wind in my sails

Get me over the border down to New South Wales



It's a nice place to visit

But I wouldn't want to stay

I might want to march in the street some day

But ol' Joh wont let me have my say

So I'll get on down to Coolangatta

And get on my way



Get over the border

Get this rocket on the rails Put some wind in my sails

I got my foot to the floor I don't know what I went there for

Get out of Queensland I'm only going back with a gun in my hand

I got me a mango one day they're gonna hang Joh



Over the border put some wind in my sails

over the border get my wheels on the rails

Get me over the border down to new south wales
