lirik lagu frank harte - plains of waterloo (2001)

[verse 1]
oh one fine summer’s morning, as i went a~walking
alll down by the banks of some clear flowing stream
there i spied a fair maiden making sad lamentation
and i drew myself in ambush for to hear her sad complain

[verse 2]
through the woods she marched along, may the valleys to ring~o
while the small feathered songsters around her hen they flew
saying, “the war ’tis all over and peace is returning but
my willie’s not returning from the plains of waterloo.”

[verse 3]
i approached this young maiden and said, “my fond creature
well may i make enquiry as to what’s your true love’s name?
for i have been in battle where the loud cannons rattle
and by his description, well i think i know the same.”

[verse 4]
“willie reilly’s my love’s name, he’s a hero of great fame
although he’s gone and left me in sorrow now ’tis true
and no man will me enjoy but my own darling boy
although he’s not returning from the plains of waterloo.”

[verse 5]
“if willie reilly’s your love’s name, then he’s a hero of great fame
he and i have been in battle throughout many’s a long campaign
through italy and russia, in germany and prussia
he was my loyal comrade in france and in spain.”
[verse 6]
“but alas there at length, by the french we were surrounded
and like heroes of old well we did them subdue
we fought for three days till at last we defeated him
that bold napoleon boney on the plains of waterloo.”

[verse 7]
“on the eighteenth of june, it being ending the battle
leaving many’s a gallant hero in sorrow to complain
where the drums they do beat and the loud cannons rattle
’twas by a frenchman’s bullet your young william, he was slain.”

[verse 8]
“oh and as i drew near to the spot he lay a~bleeding
well, i scarcely had time for to bid him adieu
and as he lay dying, these words he kept repeating:
‘fare thee well, me lovely annie, you are far from waterloo.'”

[verse 9]
when this maiden she heard all this sad decleration
her red rosy cheecks they grew pale and woeful one
and when he heard the sound of her sad lamentation
he drew her in his arms, and said, “i am your loving one.”

[verse 10]
“oh see here is the ring that between us was broken
in the midst of all danger it reminded me of you.”
and now this young couple, they are reunited
no more will willie battle on the plains of waterloo
