Ye boys and girls that have a mind..
|
To leave your troubles far behind.
|
Enlist and take a soldiers' pay.
|
Go over the hills and far away!
|
|
We'll fight in dry Afghanistan,
|
To keep the peace in foreign lands.
|
Learn the real soldiers' way,
|
Go over the hills and far away!
|
|
Come and join the infantry,
|
Where the real soldiers fight, you'll see..
|
Our comrades we will not betray,
|
Over the hills and far away.
|
|
It's safe at home; we'd rather stay,
|
Watch our children grow and play.
|
We owe the crown, so now we'll pay,
|
We're over the hills and far away.
|
|
Over the hills we'll march today,
|
And The Queen has called so we obey.
|
We'll stand our ground and here we'll stay..
|
Over the hills and far away!
|

|
The politicians sleep at night,
|
While out here we will stand and fight.
|
English, French, we're brothers all,
|
Remember us if here we falla˘ć|
|
|
Over the hills we'll march today,
|
And The Queen has called so we obey.
|
We'll stand our ground and here we'll stay..
|
Over the hills and far away!
|
|
Over the hills we'll march today,
|
And The Queen has called so we obey.
|
We'll stand our ground and here we'll stay..
|
Over the hills and far away!
