Warumpi Band - "Whitefella, Blackfella" - Lyrics

Lyric video
=========
Blackfella, whitefella (1985)
Black fella, white fella
It doesn't matter what your colour
As long as you, a real fella
As long as you, a true 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
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 that's always ready with a helping hand?
Are you the one who understands these family plans?
Black fella, white fella
Yellow fella, any fella
It doesn't matter what your colour
As long as you, a true fella
All the people, of different races
With different lives, in different places
It doesn't matter which religion is
It's all the same when the ship is sinking
We need more brothers, if we're to make it
We need more sisters, if we're to save it
Are you the one that's gonna stand up and be counted?
Are you the one who's gonna be there when we shout it?
Are you the one that's always ready with a helping hand?
Are you the one who understands these family plans?
Stand up, stand up and be counted
Stand up, stand up and be counted
Are you the one that's gonna stand up and be counted?
Stand up, stand up and be counted
Stand up, stand up and be counted
Are you the one that's always ready with a helping hand?
Stand up, stand up and be counted
Are you the one who understands these family plans?

Stand up and be counted ❤️💛🖤

[@menufrog]

I can clearly recall the first time i heard this song- it was the mid 90's, Survival Day and the Warrumpi Band were deadly. I was just a kid then, remember being struck by the raw performance, the connection/talent of the band, the songs message. Still resonates, reverberating somewhere in my long term memory.
