Marching Round the Ladies (Joshua Burnside) Songtext
von Aly Bain

Marching round the ladies
Marching round the shore
Marching round the ladies
As you have done before

In and out of windows
In and out the door
In and out of windows
As you have done before

Stand and face your lover
Stand and face the shore
Stand and face your lover
As you have done before

Whisper in the garden
Whisper on the road
Whisper in the garden
Where the elderberry grows


Write to him in Paris
Write to him in France
Write to him in Paris
Where the ladies learn to dance

Follow him up to Glasgow
Follow him up the shore
Follow him up to Glasgow
Where they drink ′till three or four

Chase him back to Belfast
Chase him out the door
Chase him back to Belfast
As you have done before

In and out of windows
In and out the door
In and out of windows
As you have done before

Marching up the Shankill
Marching up the Falls
Doesn't matter where you′re from
The Tories fuck us all


Bring me wine and porter
Send me off to bed
Bring me wine and porter
For the noise inside my head

Stand and face your lover
Stand and face the shore
Stand and face your lover
As you have done before

Whisper in the garden
Whisper on the road
Whisper in the garden
Where the elderberry grows
