(Thomas)
He stopped to change a tyre out near Warnambool,
His Chevy it was all over the road.
He pulled into town sometime in the early afternoon,
More than a normal travelling salesman, the guitar his only load.
And we were all there waitin', in the Colac hall,
Our little legs a-swinging 'neath the chairs,
But I just sucked a butter menthol and never once looked at the girls,
Would the 'Cat Come Back' like last time? I fell into despair.
But here's a go, let's catch the show and lay your money down,
Cause Morton's back in town.
And I still hear the way he played his old guitar,
And I still hear the way he sang those songs.
And I still hear his voice so crisp and clear above the crowd,
Do I remember? Am I joking?
Somehow it all just seems so strong.
And could he crack a whip?
You bet he could (don't you make me laugh!)
And could he tell a joke? He would make you cry.
And could he hypnotise and do a dance and spin a yarn?
You name it, he could do it with the winkin' of an eye!
But here's a go, let's catch the show and lay your money down,
Cause Morton's back in town.
Ain't it funny how time passes, how the years just slip away.
And the memories we have they play their games.
And now it's me who's strumming guitars,
Now it's me who's travelling round,
But somehow I get the feeling that it isn't quite the same...
For it was never quite this easy,
It was never quite this hard.
But it never made much sense to theorise,
When the show closed down you'd pack your things,
You'd soon be on your way.
First you see him, now you don't,
He'd be gone before your very eyes.
But here's a go, let's catch the show and lay your money down,
Cause Morton's back in town.
From the U.S.A. to Canada,
He played the roving clown,
Morton's back in town.
From Dunedin to Germany and on to Darling Downs.
Hey, Morton,
The Great Morton, Tex Morton!
Morton's back in town.

  • A Tale They Wont Believe
    "We left Macquarie Harbour it was in the pouring rain
    none of us quite sure if we would see England again
    some fool muttered death or liberty
    there was six of us together a jolly hungry crew..."
  • Big River
    "You've never mentioned this before
    It seems I'm always the last to know
    And do I have to guess how you're going to feel each day
    You never have a word to say..."
  • Brunswick
    "He came up from the country looking for a job of work,
    He came from a town that died a slow hard death,
    And when the train pulled into Spencer Street, he was fast asleep.
    He opened one eye and he took a long deep breath...."
  • For A Short Time
    "Sometimes you can say more, in a drunken hour or so
    Than some people get across, in a life of lying low.
    And sometimes you can feel more, for someone you've barley kissed,
    but you don't see it at the time, and the moment that you've missed...."
  • Gun
    "Sometimes you can say more, in a drunken hour or so
    Than some people get across, in a life of lying low.
    And sometimes you can feel more, for someone you've barley kissed,
    but you don't see it at the time, and the moment that you've missed...."
  • Industrial Town
    "A bunch of withered roses lie, a faded silhouette
    Caught you jumpin' in the deep end last night, but it hasn't happened yet.
    They're tying up your body with some rusty Number 8 and they say,
    Too early with your run, son...."
  • Laughing Boy
    "Down in the valley, the valley so low,
    Lay the town over and hear the winds blow,
    Lay the town over and dig it all in,
    For what we once had will not come again...."
  • Missing in Action
    "Laughing Boy is drowned,
    Sailed across the sea.
    Whisky was his daily bread,
    His like we'll never see, again...."
