Lord Marlborough (BBC Session - Folk On One 27/3/71) - Fairport Convention (公平港口大会)[00:00:00]

You generals all and champions bold[00:00:00]

That takes delight in fields[00:00:03]

That knocks down churches and castle walls[00:00:06]

But now to death must yield[00:00:09]

We must go and face our daring foes[00:00:12]

And with a sword and shield[00:00:15]

I often fought with my merry men[00:00:19]

But now to death must yield[00:00:22]

I am an Englishman by birth [00:00:53]

Lord Marlborough is my name[00:00:56]

And I was brought up in London town [00:01:00]

A place of noted fame[00:01:03]

I was beloved by all my men [00:01:06]

And kings and princes likewise[00:01:10]

And then all the towns we took[00:01:12]

To all the world's surprise[00:01:15]

King Charles the Second I did serve[00:01:22]

To face our foes in France[00:01:25]

And at the battle of Ramillies[00:01:28]

We boldly did advance[00:01:31]

The sun was down the earth did quake [00:01:34]

So loudly did he cry[00:01:37]

"Fight on my boys for old England's sake [00:01:41]

We'll conquer or we'll die"[00:01:44]

But now we gained the victory[00:02:18]

And bravely kept the field[00:02:21]

We took great numbers of prisoners[00:02:24]

And forced them all to yield[00:02:28]

That very day my horse got shot [00:02:31]

'Twas by a musket ball[00:02:34]

And as I mounted up again [00:02:37]

My aide-de-camp did fall[00:02:40]

Now I on a bed of sickness lie [00:02:48]

I am resigned to die[00:02:51]

You generals and champions bold[00:02:54]

Stand true as well as I[00:02:57]

"Stand true my lads and fly no man[00:03:01]

But fight with courage bold"[00:03:03]

I led my men through smoke[00:03:07]

And fire but ne'er was slight with gold[00:03:09]
