why are you cryin' - poxy boggards lyrics

Loading...

there was a girl
and she was married
to the only man she loved
and he was
he was a soldier
got his orders from above

well i’m going my darling
i’m going off to war
but i’ll be back in a year
if not before

and then she held his hand
and she began to cry
her husband kissed her cheek
and then he asked her why

oh why are you crying
oh why shed those tears
i am brave and i’m not lying
so there’s no reason to fear

i’ll be back before know it
i’ll be back here in your arms
that baby in your belly
ill teach him all the charms
no need to cry

well the bairn was birthed in april
and he had his daddy’s grin
so then she sent a picture
so her man could see his kin

he showed it to his buddies
as proud as he could be
then they raised a toast
that this man and wife were three

and he sat beneath a tree
and he began to cry
his buddies they got quiet
and one there asked him why

why are you crying
why shed those tears
there’s talk they’ll end this war soon
so there’s no reason to fear

you’ll be back before you know it
you’ll be back to see your son
and teach him how to fish and play
and how to throw and run
no need to cry

then one night in late september
as his mother slept in bed
an angel came and whispered
that her husband he was dead

she woke up to her baby cryin’
she held him in her arms
she kissed his little forehead
to quiet his alarms

she gently rocked and sang to him
and did her best there not to cry
and as she choked back the tears
she gently asked him why

oh why are you crying
of why shed those tears
’cause your daddy died a hero
so you have no need to fear

i’ll tell you all about him
how he worked and played and loved
and he’ll watch every moment
from that pearly cloud above
oh why are you cryin’
oh why shed those tears
i am brave and i’m not lyin’
so there’s no reason to fear

i’ll be back before you know it
i’ll be back here in your arms
that baby in your belly
ill teach him all the charms

no need to cry

oh why are you cryin’
oh why shed those tears
i am brave and i’m not lyin’
so there’s no reason to fear
