Morton (A Song For Tex) - Weddings Parties Anything[00:00:02]

He stopped to change a tyre out near Warnambool [00:00:18]

His Chevy it was all over the road [00:00:21]

He pulled into town sometime[00:00:25]

In the early afternoon [00:00:27]

More than a normal travelling salesman [00:00:29]

The guitar his only load [00:00:31]

And we were all there waitin' in the Colac hall [00:00:35]

Our little legs a-swinging 'neath the chairs [00:00:39]

But I just sucked a butter menthol[00:00:42]

And never once looked at the girls [00:00:45]

Would the 'Cat Come Back' like last time [00:00:47]

I fell into despair [00:00:49]

But here's a go let's catch the show[00:00:52]

And lay your money down [00:00:54]

Cause Morton's back in town [00:00:56]

And I still hear the way[00:01:01]

He played his old guitar [00:01:03]

And I still hear the way he sang those songs [00:01:05]

And I still hear his voice so crisp[00:01:09]

And clear above the crowd [00:01:11]

Do I remember Am I joking [00:01:13]

Somehow it all just seems so strong [00:01:15]

And could he crack a whip [00:01:19]

You bet he could don't[00:01:20]

You make me laugh [00:01:21]

And could he tell a joke [00:01:22]

He would make you cry [00:01:24]

And could he hypnotise and[00:01:27]

Do a dance and spin a yarn [00:01:27]

You name it he could do it with[00:01:30]

The winkin' of an eye [00:01:32]

But here's a go let's catch the show[00:01:35]

And lay your money down [00:01:38]

Cause Morton's back in town [00:01:39]

Ain't it funny how time passes [00:01:53]

How the years just slip away [00:01:55]

And the memories we have[00:01:57]

They play their games [00:01:58]

And now it's me who's strumming guitars [00:02:01]

Now it's me who's travelling round [00:02:03]

But somehow I get the feeling[00:02:05]

That it isn't quite the same [00:02:07]

For it was never quite this easy [00:02:10]

It was never quite this hard [00:02:12]

But it never made much sense to theorise [00:02:14]

When the show closed down[00:02:18]

You'd pack your things [00:02:19]

You'd soon be on your way [00:02:20]

First you see him now you don't [00:02:22]

He'd be gone before your very eyes [00:02:24]

But here's a go let's catch the[00:02:27]

Show and lay your money down [00:02:29]

Cause Morton's back in town [00:02:32]

From the U S A to Canada [00:02:36]

He played the roving clown [00:02:39]

Morton's back in town [00:02:46]

From Dunedin to Germany and[00:02:46]

On to Darling Downs [00:02:48]

Hey Morton [00:02:51]

The Great Morton Tex Morton [00:02:53]

Morton's back in town[00:03:00]
