lirik lagu frank harte - king's shilling
[verse 1]
my love has left me with bairnes twa
and that’s the last o’ him i ever saw
he joined the army and marched awa
he took the shilling, he took the shilling and he’s off to war
[chorus]
come, laddies, come, hear the cannon roar
tak the king’s shilling and you’re off to war
[verse 2]
well, did he look as he marched along
with his kilt and sporran and his musket gun?
and the ladies tipped him as he marched awa
he sailed out by, he sailed out by the broomielaw
well the pipes did play as hе marched along
and the soldiers sang out a battlе song
“march on, march on,” cried the captain gay
for king and country, for king and country we will fight this day
[chorus]
come, laddies, come, hear the cannon roar
tak the king’s shilling and you’re off to war
[verse 3]
well the battle rattled to the sound of guns
and the bayonets flashed in the morning sun
the drums did beat and the cannons roared
and the shilling didn’t seem, and the shilling didn’t seem much worth the war
well, the men they fought and the men did fall
cut down by bayonet and musket ball
and many of these brave young men
would never fight for, would never fight for the king again
[chorus]
come, laddies, come, hear the cannon roar
tak the king’s shilling and you’re off to war
[verse 4]
my love has left me with bairnes twa
and that’s the last o’ him i ever saw
he joined the army and marched awa
he took the shilling, he took the shilling and he died in war
[chorus]
come, laddies, come, hear the cannon roar
tak the king’s shilling and you’ll die in war
