| Description | How do you do, young willy mcbride
Do you mind if I sit here dow by your graveside And rest for a while in the warm summer sun I've been walkin' all day, And I'm nearly done And I see by your gravestone you were only nineteen when you joined the great fall-in in nineteen sixteen. Well I hope you died quick, and I hope you died clean O, willy McBride, was it slow and obscene? Did they beat the drum slowly did they play the fife lowly Did they sound the death march as the lowered'ya down? did the band play the last, post, and chourus? did the pipes play the fowers of the forest? And did ya leave a wife or a sweethear behind? In some loyal heart is your memory enshrined And even though you died back ing nineteen sixteen. Ta that loyal heart, you forever nineteen Or are you a stranger, without even a name Forever enshrined behind some old glass pane in an old photograph, torn, tattered and stained and faded to yellow in a brown leather frame (Chourus) The sun shining dow on these green fields of france The warm wind blows gently, and the red poppies dance The trenches have vanished long under the plow no gas no barbed wire, no guns firing now but here in this graveyard that's still no-mans-land the cauntless white crosses stay mute in the sand to a mans blind indifeerence to his fellow man and a whole generation were butchered and damned (chourus) --Green Fields of france Various remakes Most notable by the dropkick murphys I memorized that |
