Plains Of Waterloo - Kate Rusby[00:00:00]
Come all you loyal lovers I pray you to draw near[00:00:13]
To listen to verse or two I mean to let you hear [00:00:22]
In the praises of a worthy youth who's honest fair and true [00:00:28]
Who fought through Spain and Portugal and fell at Waterloo [00:00:36]
The young man that I sing about is proper tall and trim [00:00:44]
His body like the wax work there's few could equal him [00:00:51]
His cheeks they were a rosy-red his eyes the deep dark blue [00:00:58]
With my charming fair none could compare on the Plains of Waterloo [00:01:06]
When the fight was at its fiercest they fought with hearts and will [00:01:27]
When guns did loudly rattle and shot and shell did kill [00:01:35]
My love he fell a victim 'mongst the thousands that they slew [00:01:42]
Far from his own to hear him moan on the Plains of Waterloo [00:01:50]
My love he lay the whole night long my love he lay in pain [00:01:58]
When the war was spread he raised his head and daylight came again [00:02:05]
When that his comrades found him 'mongst the thousands that they slew[00:02:12]
He discoursed my love and hour or more on the Plains of Waterloo [00:02:20]
"Farewell my comrades likewise my sweetheart "[00:02:57]
These were the very words he said and then he did depart [00:03:06]
They dug my love a silent grave the tears they were not few [00:03:12]
And they laid him in the cold clay on the Plains of Waterloo [00:03:20]
Although he's gone and left me no other will I take [00:03:30]
Through lonesome woods and shady groves I wander for his sake [00:03:36]
Through lonesome woods and shady groves I'll wander through and through [00:03:43]
And I'll mourn for him that's dead upon the Plains of Waterloo[00:03:51]
