D D C
Hey, hey, I see a Melbourne girl on a rusty Malvern Star, through the spastic
GNorthcote streets at dawn Dsee the way her hair's tiDed baCck,
GHer cheeks so red, aD grey coat ragged and wornD.C
G D D
Picture this, a Cpaper boy, he stands outside a Collingwood hotel
GOn his back black and white, he hums a tuneD I've learnt to hate so well.G
Chorus
ABut oh oh, won't yAou meet meGG
Under the clocks, we'Dll go walking by the riverBmG
DThrough the mud and througBmh the slimeG
DAre you so surprised, That I Bmam here, full of cheerEmG
AIn this fair city, in the DWinter time.G
Well I'll tell you what, it's such a lark,
We'll take a walk down Fawkner Park
And check the health fanatics,
See them, they go jogging there.
Could buy some chips, a piece of flake,
Drive down and eat them by the lake,
I know a shop in Chapel Street
Where nothing could compare.
But oh oh, won't you meet me
Under the clocks, we'll go walking by the river
Through the mud and through the slime
Are you so surprised,
That I am here, full of cheer
In this fair city, in the Winter time.
We could find a pub where it is warm,
Study up our racing form,
Hit the TAB, we'll blow our money there, tell me this -
Is there anywhere you'd rather be
Than with me at the MCG,
And if the Saints get done again,
By Christ, I couldn't care.
But oh oh, won't you meet me
Under the clocks, we'll go walking by the river
Through the mud and through the slime
Are you so surprised,
That I am here, full of cheer
In this fair city, in the Winter time.
In the Winter time, in the Winter time
In the Winter time, brrr!
