lirik lagu the recruiting sergeant – dominic behan
[verse 1]
as i was goin’ down the street, feelin’ fine and larky*o
a recruitin’ sergeant said to me, “now you’d like fine in kharki*o!
the king he is need o’ men, come read his proclamation*o
a life in flanders for ya then, will be a fine vacation*o”
[verse 2]
“that may be so” says i to him, “but tell me, sergeant dearie*o
if i’d a pack stuck on me back do ya think i’d look fine and cheery*o?
you’d make me train and drill until ya had me one of french’s*o
it may be warm in flanders, but it’s draughty in the trenches*o”
[verse 3]
the sergeant swung his wee bit cane, his smile was most provoking*o
he twiddled and twiddled his wee moustache, says he “i know you’re joking*o
the sandbags are so nice and ‘igh, the wind you’d ne’er feel blowing*o”
but i winked at a cailín passin’ by, says i “what if it’s snowing*o?”
[verse 4]
“yet hail or rain or wind or snow, we’re not goin’ out to flanders*o
there’s fightin’ in dublin to be done, let your sergeants and commanders go
let englishmen for england fight, ’tis just about time they started*o”
i wished the sergeant a jolly good night, and there and then we parted*o
