Rivers of Gold running dry Leaving a waste land behind
Stuff the ecology grow the economy
Rivers don't flow
Rivers of Gold run no more Rivers been mined and sold
Consume it all we'll use it all
Rivers don't flow
Leaving the children behind A planet undone don't lie
Leave a hole in the ground Rip it up rip it out
There's wealth to be dug out
Polly's you silly fellows How can you be so shallow
All of the rain has been washed away
All of the rain lost down the drain shame
You've got to live it breathe it love it and care
Rivers of Gold running dry Rivers don't flow and died
Stuff the ecology grow the economy
Rivers don't flow
Rivers of Gold run no more Rivers been mined and sold
Consume it all we'll use it all
Climate so spoilt
All of the rain been washed away
All the rain lost down the drain shame
All of our tears won't fill the weirs
All of the fears nothing you're not breathing
Love the river you've got to live it breathe it love it and care
For the river you've got to live it breathe it love it and care
Love the river let it flow Love the Yarra let it flow
Don't stop the flow let it flow
The Rivers of Gold
