Melba From Melbourne |
| Once I had a silly notion to out across the ocean |
| The future for me didn’t look to bright |
| So I signed up with a tanker |
| Got on board and raised the anchor |
| Stood and watched the Golden Gate fade out of sight |
| Nineteen days and nights we travelled |
| Through the stormy seas we battled |
| 'Till we landed in Australia far away |
| Far from friends and San Francisco |
| And the Miss I thought I’ll miss so |
| 'Till I stepped ashore in Melbourne that first day |
| So in love but couldn’t get her |
| Cared so much, couldn’t forget het |
| I fell in love just a little bit more and more |
| There I was just like I started |
| All alone and broken hearted |
| I recall the day I left Australia’s shore |
| I was standing there and tryin' |
| So hard to keep from crying |
| The more I tried, the more my tears would show |
| Then a cold breeze seem to whisper |
| «it's the end you better kiss her» |
| So I kissed her and I turned away to go |
| Then I left Melba from Melbourne |
| She made my heart yearn |
| She made my tears flow like wine |
| She wouldn’t leave there |
| I couldn’t stay there |
| So Melba could never be mine |
