lirik lagu john tams - the spanish bride

and we sailed out of england bound for lisbon harbour
with bayonets a-gleaming and pride to the fore
we’d little to hope but we tried hard to cherish
the thoughts of our loved ones on england’s fair sh-r-

and soon we were transported through h-ll and its fury
through smoke and through fire, through shot and
through flame
and at telavera we stole boney’s eagle
and in that short time we were heroes of spain

and i met with a maiden hair black as the raven
her eyes they did glister like two diamonds bright
we spoke not a word at our very first meeting
and i lay in her arms all that long spanish night

and we travelled together o’er mountain and valley
and she by my side through many’s the fight
she tended my suffering and she salved me of pity
and bore me a daughter for my heart’s delight

and we marched into lisbon proud wellington’s army
the war being over it’s homeward we’re bound
and all on the quayside – the weeping and wailing
four thousand women left on that cold ground

farewell and adieu to you spanish lady
farewell and adieu to you ladies of spain
for we’ve received orders to sail home to england
but i know in some time we’ll return once again

and if ever i’m returning it’s with gold in great
plenty
and if i return it’s with gold in great store
i’ll search far and wide for my spanish lady
who brought me such peace in the midst of such war

farewell and adieu to you spanish lady
farewell and adieu to you ladies of spain
for we’ve received orders to sail home to england
but i know in some time we’ll return once again
once again
once again
once again
