| [00:13.66] | The truth to you I'll tell |
| [00:17.07] | Oh, the truth to you I'll tell |
| [00:21.30] | She had sweethearts aplenty and men of high degree |

| [01:44.21] | "Oh, to face the cannonball |
| [01:48.57] | "I know my waist is slender, my fingers neat and small |
| [01:53.65] | But it would not make me tremble to see ten thousand fall" |

| [02:06.07] | The war soon being over |
| [02:08.54] | They hunted all around |
| [02:11.35] | And among the dead and dying |
| [02:13.59] | Her darling boy she found |
| [02:17.17] | Oh, her darling boy she found |
| [02:21.52] | She picked him up all in her arms |
| [02:23.24] | .. . .And carried him to the town |
| [02:26.82] | And sent for a physician who quickly healed his wounds |
