the magpies - paul kelly lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
when tom and elizabeth took the farm
the bracken made their bed
and “quardle*oodle*ardle*wardle*doodle”
the magpies said

[verse 2]
tom’s hand was strong to the plough
elizabeth’s lips were red
and “quardle*oodle*ardle*wardle*doodle”
the magpies said

[verse 3]
year in, year out they worked
while the pines grew overhead
and “quardle*oodle*ardle*wardle*doodle”
the magpies said

[verse 4]
but all the beautiful crops soon went
to the mortgage*man instead
and “quardle*oodle*ardle*wardle*doodle”
the magpies said

[verse 5]
elizabeth is dead now, it’s years ago
old tom went light in the head
and “quardle*oodle*ardle*wardle*doodle”
the magpies said
[bridge]
the farm’s still there. mortgage corporations
couldn’t give it away
and “quardle*oodle*ardle*wardle*doodle”
the magpies said

[instrumental outro]
