And rest for a while 'neath the warm summer sun I've been walking all day and I'm nearly done I see by your gravestone, you were only nineteen When you joined the great fallen in 1916. I hope you died well and I hope you died clean Or young Willie McBride, was it slow and obscene? [Chorus] Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly? Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down? And did the band play the Last Post and Chorus? Did the pipes play 'The Flowers of the Forest'? [Verse 3] Did you leave 'ere a wife or a sweetheart behind? In some faithful heart is your memory enshrined? Although you died back in 1916 In that faithful heart are you forever nineteen? Or are you a stranger without even a name Enclosed in forever, behind a glass frame? In an old photograph, torn, battered and stained And faded to yellow in a brown leather frame You might also like Now That We Don’t Talk (Taylor’s Version) [From The Vault] Taylor Swift All I Want for Christmas Is You Mariah Carey Dial Drunk Noah Kahan [Chorus] Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly? Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down? Did the band play the Last Post and Chorus? And did the pipes play 'The Flowers of the Forest'? [Verse 4] The sun, now it shines on the green fields of France There's a warm summer breeze; it makes the red poppies dance And look how the sun shines from under the clouds There's no gas, no barbed wire, there's no gun firing now But here in this graveyard, it's still no man's land The countless white crosses stand mute in the sand To man's blind indifference to his fellow man To a whole generation that were butchered and damned [Chorus] Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly? Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down? And did the band play the Last Post and Chorus? Did the pipes play 'The Flowers of the Forest'? [Verse 5] Ah, young Willie McBride, I can't help wonder why: Do those that lie here know, why did they die? And did they believe when they answered the call Did they really believe that this war would end wars? Well, the sorrow, the suffering, the glory, the pain The killing and dying were all done in vain For young Willie McBride, it all happened again And again and again and again and again [Chorus] Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly? Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down? And did the band play the Last Post and Chorus? Did the pipes play 'The Flowers of the Forest'? [Chorus] Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly? Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down? Did the band play the Last Post and Chorus? And did the pipes play 'The Flowers of the Forest'? ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWwi-6rc_uw
