Waltzing Matilda
whipped out her wallet
the sexy boy smiled in dismay
She took out four twenties
'cause she liked round figures
everybody's queen for a day
Oh, babe, I'm on fire
and you know I admire your
body why don't we slip away
Although I'm sure you're certain
it's a rarity me flirtin'
sha la la la la, this way
Oh, sha la la la la
sha la la la la
hey, baby, come on
let's slip away
<Interlude>
Luscious and gorgeous
oh what a humpin' muscle
call out the national guard
She creamed in her jeans
as he picked up her knees
from off
of the formica topped bar
And cascading slowly
he lifted her wholly
and boldly out of this world
And despite people's derision
proved to be more than diversion
sha la la la la, later on
And then sha la la la la
he entered her slowly
and showed her
where he was coming from
And then sha la la la la
he made love to her gently
it was like
she'd never ever come
And then sha la la la la
sha la la la la
when the sun rose
and he made to leave
You know, sha la la la la
sha la la la la
neither one regretted a thing
<Interlude>
Hey, that cunt's not breathing
I think she's had too much
of something or other, hey, man
you know what I mean?
I don't mean to scare you
but you're the one who came here
and you're the one
who's gotta take her
when you leave
I'm not being smart
or trying to be cold on my part
and I'm not gonna
wear my heart on my sleeve
But you know people
get all emotional
and sometimes, man
they just don't
act rational you know
they think they're just on TV
Sha la la la, man
why don't you just slip her away
You know
I'm glad that we met man
it really was nice talking
and I really wish that
there was a little more time
to speak
But you know
it could be ahassle
trying to explain
this all to a police officer
about how it was that
your old lady
got herselfstiffed
And it's not like we could help
but there wasn't nothing
no one could do
and if there was
man you know
I would have been the first
But when someone turns that blue
well, it's a universal truth
and then you just know
that bitch will never fuck again
By the way
that's really some bad shit
that you came to our place with
but you ought
to be more careful
around the little girls
It's either the
best or it's the worst
and since I don't have to choose
I guess I won't
and I know this ain't no way
to treat a guest
But why don't you grab
your old lady by the feet
and just lay her out
in the darkest street
and by morning
she's just another hit and run.
You know, some people
got no choice
and they can never find a voice
to talk with that
they can even call their own
So the first thing that they see
that allows them the right to be
why they follow it, you know
it's called bad luck
<Interlude>
Believe me (man)
that's just a lie
it's a lie she tells her friends
'cause the real song
the real song
that she won't even
admit to herself
[is] the beat in her heart.
It's a song lots of people know.
It's a painful song
but I wrote a sad truth
but alas for sad songs
a painful wish.
But wishin'
won't make it so, Joe
With a pretty kiss
for a pretty face
can't have its way
Y'know tramps like us
we were born to pay.
Love has gone away
and there's no one here now
And there's nothing left to say
but, oh, how I miss him, baby
Oh, baby
come on and slip away
come on, baby
why don't you slip away
Love is gone away
took the rings off my fingers
And there's nothing left to say
but, oh how
oh how I need him, baby
Come on, baby
I need you baby
oh, please don't slip away
I need your loving
so bad, babe
please don't slip away
