slim dusty - humpty doo waltz lyrics
the heatwave’s all vanished as night time descended in
a small country town,
in the north
and with sand flies an’ mozzies as swinging companions,
we dance to the humpty doo waltz.
oh the lanterns were swinging and the beer it flowed
free,
and the patrons all sung themselves ho-rs-,
and with sand flies an’ mozzies as swinging companions,
we dance to the humpty doo waltz.
[instrumental]
mine hosts, don and swiggie, how they too oblige you
with cold beers
straight from the tap,
then bluey comes in with norm right behind him,
six gallons and then off for a nap.
my story sounds far fetched, i’m sure but it’s true,
so please don’t regard me a fool,
old bluey’s a big man who’s gotta big thirst
young norman’s his pet brahma bull.
oh the lanterns were swinging and the beer it flowed
free,
and the patrons all sung themselves ho-rs-,
with sand flies an’ mozzies as’ swinging companions,
we dance to the humpty doo waltz.
(play it geoff)
[instrumental]
you’ll meet all kinds of people resting at the bar
at the humpty doo that is clear
there’s doctors, contractors and buffalo hunters
all lined up for a cold gl-ss of beer
though your spirits be low from the times of the day
and your lucks gone down a rough course
forget all your heartaches and troubles at home
and join in the humpty doo waltz
oh the lanterns were swinging and the beer it flowed
free,
and the patrons all sung themselves ho-rs-,
with sand flies an’ mozzies as swinging companions,
we dance to the humpty doo waltz.
(here we go)
