I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da

I'm not fit for soldier

I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da
|
I'm not fit for soldier
|
I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da
|
I'm not fit for soldier

I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da

I'm not fit for soldier

For the king he say, the king say
|
For now you fight or I'll take your land away
|
For the king he say, the king say
|
For now you fight or I'll take your land away
|
|
So over the seas, over the seas
|
To kill a man that I have never seen
|
Over the seas.....
|
|
I won't die for England
|
Not for England
|
|
I said to me ma, said to me ma, said to me ma
|
I sail away now
|
I said to me ma, said to me ma, said to me ma
|
I sail away now
|
|
Over the seas, over the seas
|
Far away from my Ireland
|
Over the seas, over the seas
|
Far and away from miles of green
|
|
For the king he say, the king say
|
For now you fight or I'll take your children
|
For the king he say, the king say
|
For now you fight or I'll take your children
|
|
So they send me away, send me away
|
To kill a man that I have never seen
|
They send me away, send me away.....
|
|
I won't die for England
|
Not for England
|
|
Far away from my homeland
|
Many miles, many miles I would roam
|
Far from my home
|
Far from my home....
|
|
Far and away.....
|
I won't die for England
|
Not for England
