Walkerville by Mick Thomas Intro One, two, three, four Verse 1 For the last time, I walked to the jerry I watched your ships arrivin' and unloadin' on the key And for the last time, I'll ask the news of Melbourne Town Though now, I'm headin' homewards Means nothin' much to me Chorus I never thought that I would be the one so sad for leavin' As their loadin' down the houses from the town upon the hill It's a peculiar respite It's a bitter valediction As the morning sun was breaking on the cliffs at Walkerville In Walkerville Down by Walkerville In Walkerville Down by Walkerville Verse 2 From 'round by Stanford Bridge, she came Arrived here with her dad He earned his money at the kiln For I could never earn his trust But there are venues adequate Dream-lipped chap in Walkerville For a mismatch made in heaven And easy turned impossible Chorus I never thought that I would be the one so sad for leavin' As their loadin' down the houses from the town upon the hill It's a peculiar respite It's a bitter valediction As the morning sun was breaking on the cliffs at Walkerville In Walkerville Down by Walkerville In Walkerville Down by Walkerville Verse 3 We took the limestone of the stately homes of Melbourne Loaded it on boats, it took off across the bone When the mine had finished and the company set orders She was bound for Melbourne Town, but I was headed home They're finding pearls up in the great Northwest Diamonds out in Africa, gold up on the palmer It's all money in the bank But I never thought that I'd be findin' love down here in South Gippsland But that is where I found it, and for that, I must give thanks Chorus I never thought that I would be the one so sad for leavin' As their loadin' down the houses from the town upon the hill It's a peculiar respite It's a bitter valediction As the morning sun was breaking on the cliffs at Walkerville Could you feel my soul a-quaking on the cliffs at Walkerville? And would you blame this heart for breaking on the cliffs at Walkerville?
