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!
