Ye boys and girls that have a mind.. | |
To leave your troubles far behind. | |
Enlist and take a soldiers' pay. | |
Go over the hills and far away! | |
We'll fight in dry | |
Afghanistan, | |
To keep the peace in foreign lands. | |
Learn the real soldiers' way, | |
Go over the hills and far away! | |
Come and join the infantry, | |
Where the real soldiers fight, you'll see.. | |
Our comrades we will not betray, | |
Over the hills and far away. | |
It's safe at home; we'd rather stay, | |
Watch our children grow and play. | |
We owe the crown, so now we'll pay, | |
We're over the hills and far away. | |
Over the hills we'll march today, | |
And The Queen has called so we obey. | |
We'll stand our ground and here we'll stay.. | |
Over the hills and far away![Accordion/Flute solo] | |
The politicians sleep at night, | |
While out here we will stand and fight. | |
English, French, we're brothers all, | |
Remember us if here we fall… | |
Over the hills we'll march today, | |
And The Queen has called so we obey. | |
We'll stand our ground and here we'll stay.. | |
Over the hills and far away! | |
Over the hills we'll march today, | |
And The Queen has called so we obey. | |
We'll stand our ground and here we'll stay.. | |
Over the hills and far away! |
Ye boys and girls that have a mind.. | |
To leave your troubles far behind. | |
Enlist and take a soldiers' pay. | |
Go over the hills and far away! | |
We' ll fight in dry | |
Afghanistan, | |
To keep the peace in foreign lands. | |
Learn the real soldiers' way, | |
Go over the hills and far away! | |
Come and join the infantry, | |
Where the real soldiers fight, you' ll see.. | |
Our comrades we will not betray, | |
Over the hills and far away. | |
It' s safe at home we' d rather stay, | |
