[00:00.00]The Band Played Waltzing Matilda - Ryan Kelly
[00:01.00]Now when i was a young man and i carried my pack
[00:05.29]
[00:05.81]And i lived the free life of the rover
[00:09.32]
[00:10.66]From the murray's green basin to the dusty out back
[00:15.01]
[00:15.77]I waltzed my matilda all over
[00:19.05]
[00:20.04]Then in 1915 my country said 'son
[00:25.25]
[00:26.13]It's time to stop rambling there's work to be done'
[00:30.34]
[00:31.65]And they gave me a tin hat and they gave me a gun
[00:36.67]
[00:38.45]And they sent me away to the war
[00:41.87]
[01:01.96]And the band played waltzing matilda
[01:05.61]
[01:07.33]As the ships pulled away from the quay
[01:10.84]
[01:12.61]And amid all the tears flag waving and cheers
[01:18.11]
[01:19.40]We sailed off to galipolli
[01:22.67]
[01:24.70]And how i remember that terrible day
[01:28.99]
[01:29.79]How our blood stained the sand and the water
[01:33.67]
[01:35.28]And how in that hell that they called suvla bay
[01:39.72]
[01:40.45]We were butchered like lambs to the slaughter
[01:43.93]
[01:45.33]Johnnie turk was ready oh he primed himself well
[01:50.38]
[01:50.94]He rained us with bullets and he showered us with shell
[01:55.53]
[01:56.25]And in five minutes flat we were all blown to hell
[02:00.88]
[02:02.97]Nearly blew us all back home to australia
[02:06.54]
[02:08.14]But the band played waltzing matilda
[02:11.23]
[02:12.66]As we stuck to bury our slain
[02:16.97]
[02:19.02]We burned ours and the turks buried theirs
[02:23.92]
[02:25.25]And we started all over again
[02:29.18]
[02:37.65]Those who were living just tried to survive
[02:42.10]
[02:42.62]In a mad world of blood death and fire
[02:46.36]
[02:47.71]And for ten weary weeks i kept myself alive
[02:53.38]While around me the corpses piled higher
[02:56.68]
[02:58.39]Then a big turkish shell knocked me arse over head
[03:03.04]
[03:03.65]And when i awoke in my hospital bed
[03:08.25]
[03:08.86]And saw what it had done and i wished i was dead
[03:13.87]
[03:16.92]Never knew there were worse things than dying
[03:20.54]
[03:22.04]For no more i'll go waltzing matilda
[03:26.02]
[03:27.34]All round the green bush far and near
[03:31.83]
[03:32.97]For to hump tent and pegs a man needs both legs
[03:37.93]
[03:39.50]No more waltzing matilda for me
[03:42.66]
[03:44.37]They collected the crippled the wounded the maimed
[03:49.20]
[03:50.01]And they shipped us back home to australia
[03:53.56]
[03:55.48]The armless the legless the blind the insane
[03:59.98]
[04:00.78]Those proud wounded heroes of suvla
[04:04.57]
[04:05.77]And as our ship pulled in to circular key
[04:10.61]
[04:11.17]And i looked at the place where my legs used to be
[04:15.58]
[04:16.22]I thanked christ there was nobody there waiting for me
[04:21.20]
[04:23.64]To grieve and to mourn and to pity
[04:27.16]
[04:28.83]And the band played waltzing matilda
[04:31.42]
[04:32.48]As they carried us down the gangway
[04:37.20]
[04:38.82]But nobody cheered they just stood there and stared
[04:44.36]
[04:45.61]And turned all their faces away
[04:48.87]
[04:57.81]So now every april i sit on my porch
[05:03.34]And i watch the parade pass before me
[05:06.37]
[05:08.10]And i see my old comrades how proudly they march
[05:12.95]
[05:13.75]Renewing their dreams of past glory
[05:17.34]
[05:18.74]I see the old men all tired stiff and sore
[05:24.09]The weary old heroes of a forgotten war
[05:28.54]
[05:29.59]And the young people ask 'what are they marching for'
[05:34.58]
[05:36.25]And i ask myself the same question
[05:39.48]
[05:41.29]And the band played waltzing matilda
[05:44.63]
[05:45.46]And the old men still answer the call
[05:50.37]
[05:51.51]But year after year the numbers get fewer
[05:57.17]
[05:58.21]Some day none will march there at all
[06:01.58]
[06:04.76]Waltzing matilda waltzing matilda
[06:09.35]
[06:11.26]Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
[06:16.17]
[06:17.10]And their ghosts may be heard as they march by the billabong
[06:23.07]
[06:25.74]Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
