ROOM ENOUGH FOR YOU AND ME 
(Paul Friswell)


The Overlanders - 1965


 
          
One paper moon and a big yellow sun
A sparkling river going flowing to the sea
People say that soon there'll not be room for everyone
But there's room enough for you and for me, babe
Room enough for you and for me
 
Two little people, a boy and a girl
Lookin' for a lonely place to be
Everywhere they find too many people in the world
But there's room enough for you and for me, babe
Room enough for you and for me


Well, there's lots of people everywhere we roam
And the only place for peace and rest is home
But as far as I can see
There's room enough for you and for me


All day long there's people getting in each other's way
And I don't claim to understand nor see
Well, one thing that I do know, though I don't have much to say
Well, there's room enough for you and for me, babe
Room enough for you and for me
Room enough for you and for me
