Blackfella / Whitefella

George Rrurrambu Burarrwanga, Neil Murray (AUS)

[Verse 1]
Blackfella, whitefella
It doesn't matter what your colour
As long as you're a, a true fella
As long as you're a, a real fella
All the people of different races
With different lives in different places
It doesn't matter what your name is
We got to have lots of changes
We need more brothers if we're to make it
We need more sisters if we're to save it

[Chorus]
Are you the one who's gonna stand up and be counted?
Are you the one who's gonna be there when we shout it?
Are you the one who's always ready with a helpin' hand?
Are you the one who understands this family plan?

[Verse 2]
Blackfella, whitefella
Yellafella, any fella
It doesn't matter what your colour
As long as you're a, a true fella
All the people of different races
With different lives in different places
It doesn't matter which religion
It's all the same when the ship is sinkin'
We need more brothers if we're to make it
We need more sisters if we're to save it

[Chorus]
Are you the one who's gonna stand up and be counted?
Are you the one who's gonna be there when we shout it?
Are you the one who's always ready with a helpin' hand?
Are you the one who understands this family plan?
