Scorn Of The Women - Weddings Parties Anything[00:00:01]
Well I remember respectfully[00:00:43]
Like others before me[00:00:46]
All those folk who fell in the war[00:00:50]
And I heard you singing songs of lamentation[00:00:58]
But I don't wish to hear them no more[00:01:05]
"And what did you do in the time of the war "[00:01:13]
Is a question asked by everyone[00:01:20]
Well I stood in the line[00:01:27]
My screwdriver in hand[00:01:31]
Making aircraft out at Laverton[00:01:34]
SO don't sing no songs about Waltzing Matilda[00:01:43]
Don't tell me I tried don't tell me I failed[00:01:50]
'Cos all I recall is the scorn of the women[00:01:58]
And the white feather that I received in the mail[00:02:06]
Well I remember the day[00:02:29]
I went down to enlist[00:02:33]
And they said "Read this chart on the wall"[00:02:36]
And I remember the tone[00:02:44]
Of the voice of the doctor[00:02:48]
As he said to me[00:02:52]
"That will be all thank you very much"[00:02:54]
And riding home slowly I sat on my tram[00:02:59]
Not sure if to laugh or to cry[00:03:06]
For to train in the camps[00:03:14]
A man needs his lamps[00:03:18]
And a good soldier[00:03:22]
Must have good eyes[00:03:24]
SO don't sing no songs about Waltzing Matilda[00:03:29]
Don't tell me I tried don't tell me I failed[00:03:37]
'Cos all I recall is the scorn of the women[00:03:45]
And the white feather that I received in the mail[00:03:52]
Well it takes more than bullets[00:04:31]
To murder to maim[00:04:36]
Whether worn down or beaten[00:04:39]
A death's still a death[00:04:43]
And you know sometimes[00:04:47]
When I think back to the forties[00:04:49]
I pray for my very last breath[00:04:55]
Oh you know I have nothing[00:05:02]
Against those who fought[00:05:06]
But for Christ's sake[00:05:09]
We do what we can[00:05:11]
There's more than one way[00:05:17]
That you can skin a cat[00:05:21]
And there's more than one way[00:05:25]
You can cripple a man[00:05:28]
SO don't sing no songs about Waltzing Matilda[00:05:32]
Don't tell me I tried don't tell me I failed[00:05:40]
'Cos all I recall is the scorn of the women[00:05:48]
And the white feather that I received in the mail[00:05:55]
SO don't sing no songs about Waltzing Matilda[00:06:03]
Don't tell me I tried don't tell me I failed[00:06:10]
'Cos all I recall is the scorn of the women[00:06:18]
And the white feather that I received in the mail[00:06:26]
