This song is a Platinum-certified single recorded by the Australian new wave rock group Men at Work and was released as a single.
Even though the song was recorded in the early 1980s, I love the vibe of this song. When I heard the name of the song, I thought it would be some slow ballad type song, but once I heard the song, I knew I was wrong. I like the energy in this one, there is the right amount of everything. The chorus is catchy and the lyrics seem really nice and the performance is also spot on.

Bm A Bm G A x6 Bm A Bm G A Lying in a den in Bombay Bm A Bm G A With a slack jaw, and not much to say Bm A Bm G A I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me? Bm A Bm G A Because I come from the land of plenty." A And he said: [CHORUS] D A Bm G A "Oh! Do you come from a land down under (oh yeah yeah) D A Bm G A Where women glow and men plunder D A Bm G A Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder D A Bm G A You better run, you better take cover."
