Rebel Soldier Songtext
Oh, Polly! Oh, Polly! It′s for your sake alone,
I left my dear old father, my country and my home,
I left my dear old mother to weep and to mourn -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
It's grape-shot and muskets and the cannon lumber loud,
There′s many a mangled body, with dew for it's shroud,
There's many a mangled body left on the field′s alone -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
You′ll drink your fine brandy, and I will drink my wine,
You can drink to your true love, and I will drink to mine,
You can drink to your true love and I'll lament and mourn -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
I′ll build me a castle on some green mountain high,
So, I can see Polly as she comes passing by,
So, I can see Polly and help her to mourn -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
I left my dear old father, my country and my home,
I left my dear old mother to weep and to mourn -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
It's grape-shot and muskets and the cannon lumber loud,
There′s many a mangled body, with dew for it's shroud,
There's many a mangled body left on the field′s alone -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
You′ll drink your fine brandy, and I will drink my wine,
You can drink to your true love, and I will drink to mine,
You can drink to your true love and I'll lament and mourn -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
I′ll build me a castle on some green mountain high,
So, I can see Polly as she comes passing by,
So, I can see Polly and help her to mourn -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
