Lyrics:

I'm broke and I'm hungry
I'm hard up and I'm lonely
I've been dancing on this killing floor for years

Of the few things that I am certain
I'm the captain of my burden
I'm sorry doll, I could never stop the rain

Once you said I was your hero
You would dance with me on a dime
We could spin this world right, right, right round
And catch back up on the flipside

I was gonna get this real big engine
I was gonna get them Broadway stars
You were gonna be my Judy Garland
We were gonna share your tin man heart

[Chorus:]
There's a dirty wind blowing
There's a storm front coming in
There's an SOS on the seas tonight
Steady now, Steady now
Soldier hold fast now
It's heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams tonight

We used to drive all night, all over town
We'd go Waltzing Matilda, when Matilda came around
(And I always sang them blues...to you)

[Chorus]
There's a dirty wind blowing
There's a storm front coming in
There's an SOS on the seas tonight
Steady now, Steady now
Soldier hold fast now
It's heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams tonight

There's a dirty wind blowing
There's a storm front coming in
There's an SOS on the seas tonight
Steady now, Steady now
Soldier hold fast now
It's heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams tonight

There's a dirty wind blowing
There's a storm front coming in
There's an SOS on the seas tonight
Steady now, Steady now
Soldier hold fast now
It's heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams
On heart attacks and broken dreams
Atlantis is my only dream tonight
