Текст песни: The Ballad of Peggy and Col + перевод

Peggy’s been into town been walking around

Been drinking with the boys

Been spending some money on herself for a change

Been making so much noise

But Col just sits on a bus to Perth

He got tears in his eyes

20 years down the drain

Now the world just passes by

She’s done up her hair She’s gone and bought a new dress

And don’t she look a sight

She’s been to a party to a restaurant

And Peggy feels alright

But Col’s been drinking way too hard

He’s got bags beneath his eyes

And he’s got ten bucks left no job no wife

Its enough to make you cry

Now when Col came in he was a dreadful mess

And the kids they just stared blank

He had dirt on his face he had holes in his shoes

Not one penny in the bank

Meanwhile Peg was with her man in town

all dressed up like a doll

But she drops it all she goes running home

Cos when it all boiled down to it Peggy loved Col
