| Tom Waits – Waltzing Mathilda Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| The original Waltzing Matilda is the story of a hobo who dances with his rucksack (matilda) in place of a real woman. I think this song is about being stuck and lonely in rainey Amsterdam finding solace with a prostitute and Bushmill's whiskey. | |
