Gallant 40 Twa — текст песни (Town Pants)





You may talk about your lancers, or your Irish Fusiliers,
The Aberdeen Militia or the Queen`s Own Volunteers;
Or any other regiment that`s lyin` far awa`
Come give to me the tartan of the gallant Forty Twa.
Chorus:
And strolling through the green fields
on a summer day
A-watchin` all the country girls a-workin` at the hay.
I really was delighted and he stole my heart awa`
When I saw him in the tartan of the gallant Forty Twa.
I never will forget the day his regiment marched past
The pipes they played a lively tune but my heart was aghast.
He turned around and smiled farewell and then from far awa`
He raised to me the tartan of the gallant Forty Twa.
(Chorus)
Once again I heard the music of the pipers from afar
They tramped and tramped, the weary men returning from the war
And as they nearer drew I brushed a woeful tear awa`
To see my bonnie laddie of the gallant Forty Twa.
(Chorus)
