O, the soldier boys have ta'en him up And sent him far, far from me Last payday he went off to town And them red-coated fellows Enticed him in and made him drunk And he's better gone to the gallows. The very sight of his cockade It sets us all a'crying And me I nearly fainted twice I thought that I was dying My father would have paid the smart And he ran for the golden guinea But the sergeant swore he'd kissed the book And now they've got young Jimmy. When Jimmy talks about the wars It's worse than death to hear him I have to go and hide my face Because I cannot bear him A brigadier or grenadier He says they're bound to make him But aye he laughs and cracks his jokes And bids me not forsake him. As I walked ower the stubble fields Below it runs the seam I thought of Jimmy hewing there But it was all a dream He hewed the very coals we burn And when the fire I'm lighting To think the coals was in his hands It sets my heart to beating So break my heart and then it's ower So break my heart my dearie And lay me in the cold ground For of single life I'm weary @soldier @coal @love recorded by Dick Gaughan filename[ RECRUCOL SF ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Reel O Stumpie, Regular Army Oh, Reillys Daughter, Renaldine, Retirement, Reuben And Rachel, Revolutionary Tea, Reynard The Fox, Reynardine, Ribald Rebels Song, Ribald Rebels Song, Riddle Song, Riding A Raid, Right Up The Middle, Rigs O Rye, Rigs Of The Time, Ring Of Iron, Ring Some Changes, Rio Grande, Rise Up Jock, Rising Of The Moon, Risseltyrosselty, River, Rivers Of Texas, Road Tae Dundee, Road To The Isles, Rob Em All Naafi, Rob Roy, Robin Adair, Robin Hood, Rock About My Saro Jane, Rock Me On The Water, Rockabye Baby, Rocking Alone In An Old Rocking Chair, Rocking Around The Christmas Tree, Rocking The Cradle, Rocky Mountain, Roll Agamemnon Roll, Roll Alabama Roll, Roll Dem Bones, Roll Down, Roll Down The Line, Roll On John, Roll On The Ground, Roll The Woodpile Down, Roll Your Leg Over, Rolling Down To Old Maui, Rolling Down To Old Maui 2, Rolling Down To Old Mohee, Rolling Hills Of The Border, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
