[00:20.76] Wasted and wounded, it ain't what the moon did
[00:28.35] I've got what I paid for now
[00:35.22] See ya tomorrow, hey Frank can I borrow
[00:41.85] A couple of bucks from you?
[00:47.44] To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
[00:57.02] You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
[01:06.08] I'm an innocent victim of a blinded alley
[01:13.12] And i'm tired of all these soldiers here
[01:20.20] No one speaks English,and everything's broken
[01:26.95] And my Stacys are soaking wet
[01:32.79] To go waltzing Matilda,waltzing Matilda
[01:42.51] You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
[01:51.21] Now the dogs are barking and the taxi cab's parking
[01:58.69] A lot they can do for me
[02:05.53] I begged you to stab me,you tore my shirt open
[02:12.08] And i'm down on my knees tonight
[02:19.04] Old Bushmill's I staggered,you buried the dagger in
[02:26.12] Your silhouette window light
[02:32.00] To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
[02:41.22] You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
[02:50.46] Now I lost my Saint Christopher now that I've kissed her
[02:57.94] And the one-armed bandit knows
[03:05.03] And the maverick Chinaman,and the cold-blooded signs
[03:11.69] And the girls down by the strip-tease shows go
[03:20.72] Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
[03:27.42] You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
[03:36.78] No, I don't want your sympathy,The fugitives say
[03:44.15] That the streets aren't for dreaming now
[03:51.34] Manslaughter dragnets and the ghosts that sell memories
[03:58.11] They want a piece of the action anyhow go
[04:06.99] Waltzing Matilda,waltzing Matilda
[04:13.90] You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
[04:23.00] And you can ask any sailor and the keys from the jailor
[04:30.47] And the old men in wheelchairs know
[04:37.37] That Matilda's the defendant,she killed about a hundred
[04:44.13] And she follows wherever you may go
[04:52.80] Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
[04:59.82] You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
[05:09.13] And it's a battered old suitcase to a hotel someplace
[05:17.36] And a wound that will never heal
[05:24.85] No prima donna,The perfume is on
[05:31.27] An old shirt that is stained with blood and whiskey
[05:38.68] And goodnight to the street sweepers
[05:42.36] The night watchman flame keepers,and goodnight to Matilda too
