Sweet Polly Oliver (甜蜜的波利·奥利弗) - Sarah Brightman[00:00:00]
Written by:trad/britten benjamin[00:00:02]
As sweet Polly Oliver lay musing in bed[00:00:08]
A sudden strange fancy came into her head[00:00:14]
Nor father nor mother shall make me false prove[00:00:21]
I'll 'list as a soldier[00:00:27]
And follow my love[00:00:31]
So early next morning she softly arose[00:00:37]
And dressed herself up in her[00:00:43]
Dead brother's clothes[00:00:47]
She cut her hair close[00:00:50]
And she stained her face brown[00:00:53]
And went for a soldier to fair London Town[00:00:56]
Then up spoke the sergeant one day at his drill[00:01:06]
Now who's good for nursing[00:01:12]
A captain he's ill[00:01:15]
I'm ready said Polly[00:01:18]
To nurse him she's gone[00:01:22]
And finds it's her true love all wasted and wan[00:01:25]
The first week the docter kept shaking his head[00:01:37]
No nursing young fellow can save him he said[00:01:45]
But when Pooly Oliver had nursed him back to life[00:01:53]
He cried you have cherished[00:01:59]
Him as if you were his wife[00:02:02]
O then Polly Oliver[00:02:09]
She burst into tears[00:02:12]
And told the good doctor her hopes and her fears[00:02:16]
And very shortly after for better or for worse[00:02:22]
The captain took joyfully his pretty soldier nurse[00:02:29]
