The Green Fields Of France (Live) - The Fureys/Mundy[00:00:00]

Well how do you do young Willy mc bride[00:00:06]

Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside[00:00:12]

And rest for a while in the warm summer sun[00:00:18]

I've been walking all day and I'm nearly done[00:00:24]

I see by your gravestone your were only nineteen[00:00:32]

When you joined the great falling in nineteen sixteen[00:00:38]

Well I hope you died well and I hope you died clean[00:00:45]

Or young Willy mc bride was it slow and obscene[00:00:51]

Did they beat the drum slowly did they played the fifes lowly[00:00:57]

Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down[00:01:04]

Did the band play the last post and chorus[00:01:11]

Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest[00:01:18]

Did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind[00:01:28]

In some faithful heart is your memory enshrined[00:01:35]

And though you died back in nineteen fifteen[00:01:41]

In some faith full heart are you forever nineteen[00:01:47]

Or are you a stranger without even a name[00:01:54]

Enshrined forever behind a glass frame[00:02:01]

In an old photograph torn battered and stained[00:02:08]

And fading to yellow in a brown leather frame[00:02:14]

Did they beat the drum slowly did they played the fifes lowly[00:02:20]

Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down[00:02:26]

Did the band play the last post and chorus[00:02:34]

Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest[00:02:40]

Well the sun now it shines on the green fields of France[00:02:54]

There's a warm summer breeze it makes the red poppies dance[00:03:00]

And look how the sun shines from under the clouds[00:03:07]

There's no gas no barbed wire there's no gun firing now[00:03:12]

But here in this graveyard it's still no man's land[00:03:20]

The countless white crosses stand mute in the sand[00:03:27]

To man's blind indifference to his fellow man[00:03:34]

To a whole generation that were butchered and dammed[00:03:40]

Did they beat the drum slowly did they plaed the fifes lowly[00:03:46]

Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down[00:03:52]

Did the band play the last post and chorus[00:04:00]

Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest[00:04:06]

Well Willy mc bride I can't help wonder why[00:04:17]

Do those that lie here know why did they die[00:04:23]

And did they believe when they answered the call[00:04:30]

Did they really believe that this war would end war[00:04:36]

Well the sorrow the suffering the glory the pain[00:04:43]

The killing the dying was all done in vain[00:04:49]

For young Willy mc bride it all happened again[00:04:57]

And again and again and again and again[00:05:03]

Did they beat the drum slowly did they played the fifes lowly[00:05:09]

Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down[00:05:15]

Did the band play the last post and chorus[00:05:23]

Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest[00:05:29]

Did they beat the drum slowly did they played the fifes lowly[00:05:35]

Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down[00:05:41]

Did the band play the last post and chorus[00:05:49]

Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest[00:05:55]
