And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda

Paroles
When I was a young man I carried a pack And I lived the free life of a rover From the Murray's green banks To the dusty outback I waltzed my Matilda all over Then in 1915, the country said: "Son There's no time for rovin', there's work to be done..." And they gave me a tin hat And gave me a gun And sent me away to the war And the band played Waltzing Matilda As our ship pulled away from the quay And amidst all the cheers Flags waving and tears We sailed off for Gallipoli How well I remember that terrible day When our blood stainеd the sand and the water And how, in that Hеll That they called Suvla Bay We were butchered, like lambs at the slaughter Johnny Turk he was waiting, he'd primed himself well He showered us with bullets, and he rained us with shell And in ten minutes flat He'd blown us to Hell Nearly blew us right back to Australia And the band played Waltzing Matilda As we stopped to bury the slain We buried ours, and The Turks buried theirs And we started all over again
