I'm broke and I'm hungry I'm hard up and I'm lonely I've been dancing on this k**ing floor for years Of the few things that I am certain I'm the captain of my burden I'm sorry doll, I could never stop the rain Once you said I was your hero You would dance with me on a dime We could spin this world right, right, right round And catch back up on the flipside I was gonna get this real big engine I was gonna get them Broadway stars You were gonna be my Judy Garland We were gonna share your tin man heart [Chorus:] There's a dirty wind blowing There's a storm front coming in There's an SOS on the seas tonight Steady now, Steady now Soldier hold fast now It's heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams tonight We used to drive all night, all over town We'd go Waltzing Matilda, when Matilda came around
(And I always sang them blues...to you) [Chorus] There's a dirty wind blowing There's a storm front coming in There's an SOS on the seas tonight Steady now, Steady now Soldier hold fast now It's heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams tonight There's a dirty wind blowing There's a storm front coming in There's an SOS on the seas tonight Steady now, Steady now Soldier hold fast now It's heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams tonight There's a dirty wind blowing There's a storm front coming in There's an SOS on the seas tonight Steady now, Steady now Soldier hold fast now It's heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams On heart attacks and broken dreams Atlantis is my only dream tonight
