Tekst Utworu

[Verse 1]
The wisteria on the back veranda is still blooming
And all the great aunts are either insane or dead
Kensington Road runs straight for a while before turning
We lived on the bend, it was there I was raised and fed
[Verse 2]
Counting and running, as I go
Down past the hedges, all in a row
[Verse 3]
In Adelaide, Adelaide
Adelaide, Adelaide
[Verse 4]
Dad's hands used to shake but I never knew he was dying
I was thirteen, I never dreamed he could fall
And all the great aunts were red in the eyes from crying
I rang the bells, I never felt nothing at all
[Verse 5]
All the king's horses, all the king's men
Cannot bring him back again
[Verse 6]
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
[Verse 7]
Find me a bar or a girl, or guitar
Now where do you go on a Saturday night?
I own this town, I spilled my wine
At the bottom of the statue of Colonel Light
And the streets are so wide, everybody's inside
Sitting in the same chairs they were sitting in last year
Heh, this is my town
[Verse 8]
All the king's horses, all the king's men
Wouldn't drag me back again
[Verse 9]
Adelaide, Adelaide
Adelaide, Adelaide
Adelaide, Adelaide
Adelaide, Adelaide
[Verse 10]
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do
