On your maypole green
|
See the winding morris men
|
Angry Alfie, Bill and Ken
|
Waving hankies, sticks and books
|
All the earthen roofs
|
|
Standing at the crease
|
The batsman takes a look around
|
The boys are fielding on home ground
|
The steeple sharp against the blue
|
When I think of you
|
|
Sam and Andy
|
Jack and John
|
Charlie, Martin
|
Jamie, Ron
|
Harry, Stephen
|
Will and Don
|
Matthew, Michael
|
|
On and on
|
|
We will remember them
|
Remember them
|
Remember them
|
|
We will remember them
|
Remember them
|
Remember them
|
|
Time has slipped away
|
The Summer sky to Autumn yields
|
A haze of smoke across the fields
|
Let's sup and fight another round
|
And walk the stublbed ground
|
|
When November brings
|
The poppies on Remembrance Day
|
When the vicar comes to say
|
Lest we forget our sons
|
|
We will remember them
|
Remember them
|
Remember them
|
|
We will remember them
|
Remember them
|
Remember them
|
|
We will remember them
|
Remember them
|
Remember them
|
|
We will remember them
|
Remember them
|
Remember them
|
