Fast Boat to Sydney - Mono Version
Oh I am a cheat and I'm a liar
Oh but you're a loving ball of fire
I'll leave you like a bum without a penny
And while I'm home with the blues
I'll be hoping like a kangaroo
When I get off of that fast boat to Sydney
I said listen to me babe
I gave up the loving trade
I'm tired of all this running jumping playing
But you're like it down under
The world with the Australian girls
And there's not a word of truth in what you're saying
Oh but I am a cheat and I'm a liar
And you're a loving ball of fire
Honey I'll leave you like a bum without a penny
And while I'm home with the blues
I'll be hoping like a kangaroo
When I get off of that fast boat to Sydney
This is my greatest act
I've come boom a ranging back
Grinning like a Rudolf Valentino
But then you grab your travel load
Like a swinging grimming dog
And hopped on that fast boat to Sydney
Because I am a cheat and I'm a liar
But you're a loving ball of fire
Honey I'll leave you like a bum without a penny
And while I'm home with the blues
I'll be hoping like a kangaroo
When I get off of that fast boat to Sydney
Oh but you're a loving ball of fire
I'll leave you like a bum without a penny
And while I'm home with the blues
I'll be hoping like a kangaroo
When I get off of that fast boat to Sydney
I said listen to me babe
I gave up the loving trade
I'm tired of all this running jumping playing
But you're like it down under
The world with the Australian girls
And there's not a word of truth in what you're saying
Oh but I am a cheat and I'm a liar
And you're a loving ball of fire
Honey I'll leave you like a bum without a penny
And while I'm home with the blues
I'll be hoping like a kangaroo
When I get off of that fast boat to Sydney
This is my greatest act
I've come boom a ranging back
Grinning like a Rudolf Valentino
But then you grab your travel load
Like a swinging grimming dog
And hopped on that fast boat to Sydney
Because I am a cheat and I'm a liar
But you're a loving ball of fire
Honey I'll leave you like a bum without a penny
And while I'm home with the blues
I'll be hoping like a kangaroo
When I get off of that fast boat to Sydney
