1914 - the green fields of france lyrics
well, how do you do, young willie mcbride?
do you mind if i sit here down by your graveside?
and rest for a while in the warm summer sun
i’ve been walking all day and i’m nearly done
i see by your gravestone you were only nineteen
when you joined the great fallen in 1916
i hope you died well and i hope you died clean
or young willie mcbride, was it slow and obscene?
did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the life lowly?
did they sound the dеath march as they lowered you down?
did thе band play the last post in chorus?
did the pipes play the flowers of the forest?
did you leave a wife or sweetheart behind
in some faithful heart is your memory enshrined?
although you died back in 1916
in that faithful heart are you forever nineteen?
or are you a stranger without even a name
enclosed in forever behind the glass frame
in an old photograph, torn, battered and stained
and faded to yellow in a brown leather frame?
the sun now it shines on the green fields of france
there’s a warm summer breeze that makes the red poppies dance
and look how the sun shines from under the clouds
there’s no gas, no barbed wire, there’s no guns firing now
but here in this graveyard it’s still no man’s land
the countless white crosses stand mute in the sand
to man’s blind indifference to his fellow man
to a whole generation that were butchered and d_mned
ah young willie mcbride, i can’t help wonder why
do those that lie here know why did they die?
and did they believe when the answered the cause
did they really believe that this war would end wars?
well the sorrow, the suffering, the glory, the pain
the k!lling and dying, were all done in vain
for young willie mcbride, it all happened again
and again, and again, and again, and again
