Tom Traubert's Blues(Waltzing Matilda) - Tommy Fleming
Wasted and wounded it ain't what the moon did
I've got what I paid for now
See ya tomorrow hey Frank can I borrow
A couple of bucks from you to go
Waltzing Matilda waltzing Matilda you'll go waltzing
Matilda with me
I'm an innocent victim of a blinded alley
And I'm tired of all these soldiers here
No one speaks English and everything's broken
And my Stacys are soaking wet
To go waltzing Matilda waltzing Matilda
You'll go waltzing Matilda with me
Now I lost my Saint Christopher now
That I've kissed her and the one-armed bandit knows
And the maverick Chinamen and the cold-blooded signs
And the girls down by the strip-tease shows go
Waltzing Matilda waltzing Matilda
You'll go waltzing Matilda with me
No I don't want your sympathy
The fugitives say that the streets aren't for dreaming now
Manslaughter dragnets and the ghosts that sell memories
They want a piece of the action anyhow go
Waltzing Matilda waltzing Matilda
You'll go waltzing Matilda with me
And it's a battered old suitcase to a hotel someplace
And a wound that will never heal
No prima donna the perfume is on
An old shirt that is stained with blood and whiskey
And goodnight to the street sweepers
The night watchman flame keepers
And goodnight to Matilda too
And goodnight to Matilda too
