And The Played Waltzing Matilda

Now I was a young lad I carried me pack
And I lived the free of the rover.
the Murray's green banks, to the dusty outback
While I my Matilda all over.
Then in 1915, my said, 'Son,
It's time you stop ramblin', there's to be done.'
So they gave me a tin hat, and gave me a gun,
And they marched me to the war.

And the band 'Waltzing Matilda,'
As the ship away from the quay,
the songs and the cheers, the flag waving, and tears,
We off for Gallipoli.

And how well I that terrible day,
How our stained the sand we call Suvla Bay
We were like lambs at the slaughter.

The big Turkish shell me arse over head,
And I woke up in my hospital bed
And saw it had done, well, I wished I was dead
Never knew was worse things than dying.

So I'll go no 'Waltzing Matilda,'
or through the green bush and wide
For to and tent peg a man needs both legs,
No more Matilda' for me.

gathered the injured, the wounded, the maimed,
And they us all back to Australia.
The armless, the legless, the blind, the insane,
proud wounded heroes of Suvla.

And as our sailed into Circular Quay,
I looked at the place where me legs to be,
And thanked Christ was nobody waiting for me,
To mourn, and to grieve, and to pity.

And the band "Waltzing Matilda"
As wheeled us down the gangway.
And nobody cheered, just stood and stared.
And they all turned their away.

And the band still plays Matilda,'
And the young men still the call,
But as follows year,those old men disappear
Someday, no one will march at all.

Waltzing Mathilda, Mathilda
Who'll come a-waltzing with me
And their ghosts may be as you pass the Billabong
come a-waltzing Mathilda with me ?
