[01:31.69] Waltzing Matilda whipped out her wallet
[01:35.24] Sexy boys smiled in dismay
[01:38.98] She took out four twenties cause she liked round figures
[01:42.66] Everybody's queen for a day
[01:46.41] Oh babe, I'm on fire and you know I admire your body
[01:50.66] Why don't we slip away
[01:53.77] Although I'm sure you're certain, it's a rarity me flirtin'
[01:57.19] Sha la la la this way
[02:01.02] Oh sha la la la la - sha la la la la
[02:04.33] Hey baby
[02:05.59] Come on, let's slip away
[02:15.75] Luscious and gorgeous, oh what humping muscle
[02:19.51] Call out the National Guard
[02:22.93] She creamed in her jeans as he picked up her knees
[02:26.36] From off of the Formica topped bar
[02:30.45] And cascading slowly, he lifted her wholly and boldly
[02:34.91] Out of this world
[02:37.27] And despite people's derision proved to be more than diversion
[02:41.61] And sha la la la la later on
[02:45.08] And then sha la la la la la
[02:46.95] He entered her slowly and showed her where he was coming from
[02:52.32] And then sha la la la la he made love to her gently
[02:56.16] It was like she'd never ever come
[02:59.70] And then sha la la la la, sha la la la la
[03:03.48] When the sun rose and he made to leave
[03:07.06] You know sha la la la la, sha la la la la
[03:10.94] Neither one regretted a thing
[03:24.00] Oooh Oooh Oooh Oooh
[04:39.71] Slip away
[04:47.04] Oooh Oooh Oooh Oooh
[04:59.13] Hey, that cunt's not breathing
[05:01.27] I think she's had too much of something or other
[05:04.24] Hey, man, you know what I mean
[05:06.75] I don't mean to scare you
[05:08.24] But you're the one who came here
[05:10.34] And you're the one who's gotta take her when you leave
[05:14.01] I'm not being smart or trying to be cold on my part
[05:17.50] And I'm not gonna wear my heart on my sleeve
[05:20.86] But you know people get all emotional
[05:22.95] And sometimes man they just don't act rationally
[05:25.06] Oh, they think they're just on TV
[05:28.80] Sha la la la, man
[05:34.21] Why don't you just slip her away
[05:42.71] You know, I'm glad that we met man
[05:45.21] It was really nice talking
[05:47.02] And I really wish that there was a little more time to speak
[05:50.65] But you know it could be a hassle
[05:52.14] Trying to explain myself to a police officer
[05:53.95] About how it was your old lady got herself stiffed
[05:57.24] And it's not like we could help
[05:59.44] But there's nothing no one could do
[06:01.40] And if there was, man, you know I would have been the first
[06:04.77] Oh when someone turns that blue
[06:06.56] Well, it's a universal truth
[06:08.67] Then you just know that bitch will never fuck again
[06:12.08] By the way, that's really some bad shit
[06:14.37] That you came to our place with
[06:16.07] But you ought to be more careful around the little girls
[06:19.04] It's either the best or it's the worst
[06:21.73] And since I don't have to choose, I guess I won't
[06:23.99] And I know this ain't no way to treat a guest
[06:26.51] But why don't you grab your old lady by the feet
[06:28.96] And just lay her out in the darkest street
[06:30.74] And by morning, she's just another hit and run
[06:34.09] You know, some people got no choice
[06:36.18] And they can never find a voice
[06:37.96] To talk with that they can even call their own
[06:41.38] So the first thing that they see
[06:43.17] That allows them the right to be
[06:44.70] Why they follow it
[06:45.83] You know, it's called bad luck
[08:55.46] Bruce Springsteen:
[08:56.68] Well hey man, that's just a lie
[08:58.60] It's the lie she tells her friends
[09:01.16] 'Cause a real song
[09:02.68] The real song she won't even admit to herself
[09:04.79] The beating in her heart
[09:06.88] It's a song lots of people know
[09:09.12] It's a painful song
[09:10.39] With a load of sad truth
[09:12.78] But life's full of sad songs
[09:14.71] Penny for a wish
[09:16.40] But wishin' won't make you so, Joe
[09:19.71] But a pretty kiss or a pretty face can't have its way
[09:24.85] Joe, tramps like us, we were born to pay
[09:33.52] Love has gone away
[09:36.73] And there's no one here now
[09:40.65] And there's nothing left to say
[09:44.17] But oh how I miss him, baby
[09:49.73] Oh baby, come on and slip away
[09:56.81] Come on baby, why don't you slip away
[10:10.26] Love has gone away
[10:13.28] Took the rings off my fingers
[10:16.20] And there's nothing left to say
[10:21.03] But oh how, oh how I need it, baby
[10:25.23] Come on baby, I need you baby
[10:29.30] Oh, please don't slip away
[10:34.45] I need your loving so bad, babe
[10:37.70] Please don't slip away
