Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You won't listen to my songs anymore
You ripped my poster off the wall
'Cause I'm the singer that went to the war
You see no good in me at all
Well pardon me if I believe I haven't got it wrong
And before you turn your back on me I'll sing you
One more song
[Verse 2]
'Cause I shook hands with a digger
On the wrong side of the world
With a wife at home who holds her breath
And brand new baby girl
And the digger fights for freedom
In a job that must be done
And I let go of his hands, so proud to be Australian
And if unlike me, you feel no pride at all
Then go ahead and take me off your wall
'Cause I'd prefer to be a poster girl
On the wrong side of the world
[Verse 3]
And I'm just the girl that sings the crazy songs
Not qualified to sit and judge
I've been right and I know I've been wrong
But I'm for peace, and I'm for love
And I admire the burning fire that causes you to fight
I only wish the wrong side of the world
Had the same right
[Verse 4]
'Cause I listened to the wisdom
Of the Aussie Brigadier
He spoke of widows and of orphans
And the need to dry their tears
And he leads the fight for freedom
In a job that must be done
And I've never been more proud to say that I'm Australian
And if unlike me, you feel no pride at all
Then go ahead and take me off your wall
'Cause I'd prefer to be a poster girl
On the wrong side of the world
[Verse 5]
And maybe I'm naive to think we all could get along
But sir, I read your words, and all I ask
Is hear my song
[Verse 6]
I shook hands with a digger
On the wrong side of the world
With a wife at home who holds her breath
And brand new baby girl
And the digger fights for freedom
In a job that must be done
And I've never been more proud to say that I'm Australian
And if unlike me, you feel no pride at all
Then go ahead and take me off your wall
'Cause I'd prefer to be a poster girl
On the wrong side of the world
[Verse 7]
I'm so proud to be a poster girl
On the wrong side of the world
