Drinking black market vodka in the back of the Scottsman's saloon |
|
Then it's red meat and whiskey like a coyote drunk on the moon |
|
Outside in Oslo the buskers' all sing the same tune |
|
And it's Waltzin' Matilda while the bagpipes play old Clare de Lune |
|
She was a lady, she came down from Bergen she said |
|
She spoke little English, they laughed and drank whiskey instead |
|
In the mornin' he found it... a rose with a note on his plate |
|
It said, "meet me at midnight on the corner of St. Olav's Gate" |
|
Here's to the ladys you love and don't see again |
|
The night is warm whiskey... the mornin's a cold bitter wind |
|
The blue eyed madonna leaves town while the drunken man waits |
|
Leaves him standing alone in the shadows of St. Olav's Gate |
|
