Bridal Train Lyrics - Brief History - The Waifs

A telegram arrived today, 

Well its time to catch the Monterey 

'Cause the man I wed, he waits for me 

And a daughter that he's yet to see 

 

US Navy beamed its message, 

Will deliver brides on a one way passage 

It made big news across the nation 

The bridal train leaves from Perth station 

 

All the girls around Australia 

Married to a Yankee sailor 

The fare is paid across the sea 

To the home of the brave and the land of the free 

 

From west to east the young girls came 

All aboard the bridal train 

It was a farewell crossing of her land 

She's gone to meet her sailor man 

 

No time for sad goodbyes, 

Well she held her mother as she cried 

And then waited there in the Freo Rain, 

To climb aboard the bridal train 

 

Well she was holding her future in her hand 

Yeah the faded photo of her man 

Catch a sailor if you can 

The war bride leaves a southern land 

 

All the girls around Australia 

Married to a Yankee Sailor 

The fare is paid across the sea 

To the home of the brave and the land of the free 

 

From west to east the young girls came 

All aboard the bridal train 

It was a farewell crossing of her land 

She's gone to meet her sailor man 

 

Now this is the story of those starry nights 

Through desert plains and city lights 

Through burning sun and driving rain 

They wept aboard the bridal train 

 

All the girls around Australia 

Married to a Yankee sailor 

The fare is paid across the sea 

To the home of the brave and the land of the free 

 

From west to east the young girls came 

All aboard the bridal train 

It was a farewell crossing of her land 

She's gone to meet her sailor man
