Last Waltz
Sergeant in command
How he proudly stands
Before the parade in court
And the fellas from the farms
Are now bearing arms
Tomorrow we leave for port
The conductor of the band
Is a one armed man
He's heard the tune before
Made a loss to the hun
In mud, blood and guns
In the last war to end all wars
It's the last last waltz
My darling
It's the last last waltz
My dear
When the trumpet of the Lieutenant's calling
It's the last waltz
My darling, my dear
And so it's come to this
Just cargo to be shipped
But we can't leave just yet
There's more dancing to do

I take off my boots
And put on my best shoes
From the base to the basin
In the back of a wagon
Straight to your rose garden
I waltz round the room
My lips to her ear
'They'll come for me in the morning
My darling, my dear'
Well I got your news
And I tell you I'm rapt
As for my whereabouts?
I can't tell you that
But to say we make do in the dug-outs and shacks
And we call ourselves 'the Rats'
And like rats we are trapped
As we hear Rommel's Cats
The roar of the Panzer
Oh our little Riverina
To have been there and seen her
Before my final stanza
