Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Gosh Dave, the only part of that song I've heard before is "waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda, you'll come a waltzing Matilda with me" and I have NO idea why I know that part. The complete words give me a new perspective of the song, kind of a gagger, LOL. I thought it was about a lovely dance party. Again....the things I learn on LP Is it just me or does "minced meat" sound so much nicer than "ground meat" or "hamburger?" I think I'll go to the meat counter today and ask for "minced meat" I seriously thought it was minced meat, like finely chopped garlic or chicken. OR maybe I'm just wrong about all of it?
