Jamboree (T Finn, P Judd, E Rayner, N Crombie, M G
-==========================================================================-
Roll up, roll up, to the jamboree Roll up, roll up, to the jamboree
Roll up, roll up, troupers jamboree Old friends a-tend, long time no see Roll up, roll up, troupers come on down Big top, non stop, annual reunion
I know what you're thinking, I know what you'll say But I gotta getta be, at the troupers jamboree There's safety in numbers, I'll never forget 40 years ago, on with the show
Distant voices calling, calling me Entertaining me Memories of the heydays With the better company
I know what you're thinking, I know what you'll say But I gotta getta be, at the troupers jamboree There's safety in numbers, I'll never forget 40 years ago, on with the show
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Roll up, roll up, troupers jamboree Old friends attend, long time no see Roll up, roll up, troupers come on down Big top, non stop, annual reunion
Keeping a lonely vigil while the girls all have a ball The stories come out thick and fast, long, short and tall There's Frank du Preze on the flying trapeze Finally come down to earth Good 'ol Chris the contortionist, is bent if not worse Dear 'ol Merle the strip-tease girl, do anything for kicks And the 'ol magician has disappeared, still up to his old tricks Well the gag man's been gagged And the straight man's gone straight The mime artiste too clever for words And the M.C's still late
Oh Jamboree.. ..oh Jamboree!
