Melba From Melbourne - Marty Robbins[00:00:00]
Written by:Marty Robbins[00:00:02]
Once I had a silly notion to out across the ocean[00:00:09]
The future for me didn't look to bright[00:00:14]
So I signed up with a tanker[00:00:18]
Got on board and raised the anchor[00:00:20]
Stood and watched the golden gate fade out of sight[00:00:22]
Nineteen days and nights we travelled[00:00:26]
Through the stormy seas we battled[00:00:29]
'Till we landed in Australia far away[00:00:31]
Far from friends and San Francisco[00:00:35]
And the miss I thought I'll miss so[00:00:37]
'Till I stepped ashore in Melbourne that first day[00:00:40]
But I met Melba from Melbourne she made my heart yearn[00:00:44]
She made my tears flow like wine[00:00:49]
She let me kiss her then made me miss her[00:00:53]
'Cause Melba could never be mine[00:00:57]
So in love but couldn't get her[00:01:18]
Cared so much couldn't forget het[00:01:20]
I fell in love just a little bit more and more[00:01:23]
There I was just like I started[00:01:27]
All alone and broken hearted[00:01:28]
I recall the day I left Australia's shore[00:01:31]
I was standing there and tryin'[00:01:35]
So hard to keep from crying[00:01:38]
The more I tried the more my tears would show[00:01:40]
Then a cold breeze seem to whisper[00:01:44]
It's the end you better kiss her[00:01:46]
So I kissed her and I turned away to go[00:01:48]
Then I left Melba from Melbourne[00:01:52]
She made my heart yearn[00:01:55]
She made my tears flow like wine[00:01:58]
She wouldn't leave there[00:02:02]
I couldn't stay there[00:02:04]
So Melba could never be mine[00:02:06]
