[00:05] Will you go to the war, Billy boy, Billy boy?
[00:10] Will you go to the war, charmin' Billy?
[00:15] It's a long ways away, they are dying every day.
[00:20] He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother.
[00:25] Can you use a bayonet, Billy boy, Billy boy?
[00:29] Can you use a bayonet, charmin' Billy?
[00:34] No, I haven't got the skill to murder and to kill.
[00:38] He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother.
[00:43] Don't you want a silver medal, Billy boy, Billy boy?
[00:48] Don't you want a silver medal, charmin'Billy?
[00:53] No desire do I feel to defend Republic Steel
[00:57] He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother.
[01:02] Don't you want to see the world, Billy boy, Billy boy?
[01:05] Don't you want to see the world, charmin' Billy?
[01:10] No, it wouldn't be much thrill to die for Dupont in Brazil
[01:15] He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother.
[01:19] Girls would like your uniform, Billy boy, Billy boy.
[01:23] Girls would like your uniform, charmin'Billy.
[01:28] They wouldn't get much chance to love me with six feet of earth above me
[01:32] He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother.
[01:36] Are you afraid to fight, Billy boy, Billy boy?
[01:40] Are you afraid to fight, charmin'Billy?
[01:45] You can come around to me when England's a democracy
[01:49] He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother.
[01:54] Will they take you from my side, Billy boy, Billy boy?
[01:58] Will they take you from my side, charmin'Billy?
[02:01] Don't you worry, mother dear, I'm a-stayin' over here
[02:06] He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother.
[02:10] He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother.
