Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1058091
Come to the river and fill your old canteen
You're about the dustiest trooper I've ever seen
Look-ee over there on the sandbank, looks like a log
But if you look again you'll see it's a big flat dog

Chorus
Come along troopie
Forget those flat dog blues
Think about the girl back home
And your civvy shoes
Come along troopie
You've got nothing to lose
Only a little bit of time
So forget those flat dog blues
There he is lying with a crocodile tear in his eye
Smiling you're a crocodile smile as you go by
Rеckon if you dare to have
A dip in the drink
You'rе gonna be a flat dog cocktail soon, I think

Chorus
Come along troopie
Forget those flat dog blues
Think about the girl back home
And your civvy shoes
Come along troopie
You've got nothing to lose
Only a little bit of time
So forget those flat dog blues

Come along Troopie
Forget those flat dog blues
