Mathilda (Calypso) |
Hey! |
Matilda, Matilda, Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela |
Once again now! |
Matilda, Matilda, Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela |
Five hundred dollars, friends, I lost: |
Woman even sell me cart and horse! |
Heya! |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela |
Everybody! |
(Matilda,) Sing out the chorus |
(Matilda,) Sing a little louder |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela |
Once again now! |
(Matilda,) Going 'round the corner |
(Matilda,) Sing out the chorus |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela |
Well, the money was to buy me house an' lan' |
Then she got a serious plan |
A-hey, ah! |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela |
Everybody! |
(Matilda |
Matilda |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela.) |
Once again now! |
(Matilda,) Going 'round the corner |
(Matilda |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela.) |
Well, the money was just inside me bed |
Stuck up in a pillow beneath me head |
Don’t you know |
Matilda, she found me money and… |
Everybody… |
(Matilda |
Matilda |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela.) |
Once again now! |
(Matilda,) Hooma locka chimba |
(Matilda,) Bring me little water |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela |
Women over forty? |
(Matilda |
Matilda |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela.) |
Everybody! |
(Matilda,) Goin' round the corner |
(Matilda,) Bring me little water |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela |
Well, me friends, never to love again |
All me money gone in vain! |
Uh, heya… |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela |
Everybody! |
(Matilda |
Matilda,) Oom, ba-locka-chimba! |
(Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela.) |
Sing a little softer! |
(Matilda |
Matilda |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela.) |
EVERYBODY! |
(Matilda |
Matilda,) Sing out the chorus! |
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela! |
