Australia - South Australian music. 'South Australia - It's My Home' (Lyrics to the song follow below) I know how it feels to belong somewhere I know how it feels to have pride I know a place that's quite remarkable A land that stretches far and wide I know whatever comes my way I'll always sing and say South Australia, South Australia It's my home, it's everything to me It's my home, it's where I want to be I see the mighty Murray flow And live a life full and free From the cities to the country towns From the ranges to the sea I know whatever comes my way I'll always sing and say South Australia, South Australia It's my home, it's everything to me It's my home, it's where I want to be I know how it feels when life gets tough When things don't go our way It's then we join together and stand strong It's times like this, we all can say I know whatever comes my way I'll always sing and say South Australia, South Australia It's my home, it's everything to me It's my home, it's everything to me It's my home, it's everything to me It's my home, it's where I want to be "'South Australia - It's My Home' is a wonderful song."
