Tom Traubert's Blues Lyrics - Rod Stewart

Wasted and wounded 

And it ain't what the moon did 

I got what I paid for now 

See you 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 strength is soaking away

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda 

You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me 

Now I've lost my St. Christopher 

Now that I kissed her 

And the one-arm bandit knows 

And the maverick Chinaman 

With the cold-blooded sigh 

And the girls down by the striptease shows go 

Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda 

You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me 

No I don't want your sympathy, fugitives say 

That the streets aren't for dreaming now 

Manslaughter dragnet 

And the ghost that sells memories 

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 in a hotel someplace 

And a wound that would never heal 

No prima donnas the perfume is on 

And old shirt that is stained with blood and whiskey 

And it's goodnight to the street-sweepers 

The night watchmen flame-keepers 

And goodnight Matilda too 

Goodnight Matilda too
