Matilda, Matilda, Matilda,

She take me money and run Venezuela.
|
Everybody ! Matilda, Matilda, Matilda
|
She take me money and run Venezuela.
|
|
Five hundred dollars, friends, I lost
|
Woman even sell me cat and horse
|
Hey, Matilda, Matilda, Matilda,
|
She take me money and run Venezuela.
|
Everybody ! Matilda, Matilda, Matilda
|
She take me money and run Venezuela.
|
|
Well, the money was to buy me house and land
|
Then she got a serious plan
|
(chorus)...
|
Well, the money was just inside me bed
|
Stuck up in a pillow beneath me head
|
Don't you know Matilda,
|
|
She found me money and...Everybody
|
(chorus)
|
Women over 40...
|
(chorus)
|
Well, me friends, never to love again
|
All me money gone in vain! …
