[Verse 1]
Monday morning got to get up
Looking for work wherever he can
Tuesday morning buys a cheap car
Wednesday morning got to get away
Car won't go but he won't give up

[Chorus]
Walk around town
Walk around town
It's a matter of choice, it's a matter of choice, it's a matter of choice

[Verse 2]
Thursday morning talks to a friend
Tells him there's a job on a building site
Someone somewhere can't get a job
In this land called Australia
Message to the people in the big smoke
Give'm a hand give'm some hope

[Chorus]
Walk around town
Walk around town
It's a matter of choice, it's a matter of choice, it's a matter of choice

[Verse 3]
Friday morning sun arise
Open his mind open his eyes
Used to word stock but it's over now
Income for him no income for her
Got no money the jobless ones
Just gets tougher but they won't give up
[Chorus]
Walk around town
Walk around town
It's a matter of choice, it's a matter of choice, it's a matter of choice
Walk around town
Walk around town
It's a matter of choice, it's a matter of choice, it's a matter of choice
