Story behind the song
Dedidicated to Peter Varga..The coolest Uncle anyone could wish for. Peter fell into the Murray River never to surface.
Lyrics
Uncle Peter used to carry us over his head He used to let us sit in the front seat of his blue valiant And his room was always the place to be well i was only six years old man what a mystery Walking backwards Playing the clown You tripped on the edges You Fell in the river And drowned We`d pretend we were racing in the drivers seat Flat tyres and cracked paint In the front of Grandmas yard Walking backwards Playing the clown You tripped on the edges You Fell in the river And drowned The ignorance of youthful ignorance Kept me from the pain And now all I have are fleeting memories And the feeling that he`s still watching over me. Well he`d let us take handfuls out of his two cent money jar And we never realised that Like his car he`d never get very far Walking backwards Playing the clown You tripped on the edges You Fell in the river And drowned Uncle Peter used to carry us over his head.
