Jamboree |
Roll up, roll up to the jamboree |
Roll up, roll up to the jamboree |
Roll up, roll up, troupers jamboree |
Old friends attend, long time no see |
Roll up, roll up, troupers come on down |
Big top, non stop, annual reunion |
I know what you’re thinking, I know what you’ll say |
But I gotta getta be, at the troupers jamboree |
There’s safety in numbers, I’ll never forget |
40 years ago, on with the show |
Distant voices calling, calling me |
Entertaining me |
Memories of the heydays |
With the better company |
I know what you’re thinking, I know what you’ll say |
But I gotta getta be, at the troupers jamboree |
There’s safety in numbers, I’ll never forget |
40 years ago, on with the show |
Roll up, roll up, troupers jamboree |
Old friends attend, long time no see |
Roll up, roll up, troupers come on down |
Big top, non stop, annual reunion |
Keeping a lonely vigil while the girls all have a ball |
The stories come out thick and fast, long, short and tall |
There’s Frank du Preze on the flying trapeze |
Finally come down to earth |
Good ol' Chris the contortionist, is bent if not worse |
Dear ol' Merle the strip-tease girl, do anything for kicks |
And the ol' magician has disappeared, still up to his old tricks |
Well the gag man’s been gagged |
And the straight man’s gone straight |
The mime artiste too clever for words |
And the MC’s still late |
Oh Jamboree, oh Jamboree! |
Oh Jamboree, oh Jamboree! |
Oh Jamboree, oh Jamboree! |
Oh Jamboree, oh Jamboree! |
