This is one of the early classic hits from the much loved Aussie Rock band Australian Crawl. Released in 1981, this is a cruisey laid back summer song, perfect for a beer garden gig or similar. We’ve done the REAL track with harmonies and guitars so it’s a nice full sound.

Track Notes: We have transposed the REAL track version down to the key of C to make it a bit easier vocally (for the guys). The singer of this song, Guy McDonough, had a very high voice and it’s a bit difficult to sing it in the original key of D (for most male singers). A standard MP3 version and chord chart is also available in the original key.

Oh No Not You Again

Australian Crawl

Let me tell you ’bout two young lovers that lived on the coast
She was such a pretty thing and man, what a host
Come evening time, she sets the table for four
Some friend’s are comin’ round tonight
He’s out on the town, he’s trying to score, woh

Woke up early this morning something’s on his mind
Cursin’ the night before, breakfast at nine
You know, she felt him restless, oh, all through the night
She senses something’s wrong with him
She don’t want to pry, she just wants to know why

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again

Don’t own no swimming pool, not even a colour T.V
He works awful hard some day’s and she lets him be
You know, things ain’t looking good for them, no love no more
Some friend’s are comin’ round tonight
He’s out on the town, knockin’ on the wrong door

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
(He’s gone, he’s gone, he’s gone, yeah)

Let me tell you ’bout two young lovers that lived on the coast

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
(He’s gone, he’s gone, he’s gone, yeah)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
(You again, again, again, yeah)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
(Baby, baby, baby)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
(You again now, baby)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh no, not you again
