brave wolfe - carolyn hester lyrics

Loading...

bad news has come to town
bad news is carried
some say my love is dead
some say he’s married

as i was pondering on this, i took to weeping
they stole my love away, while i was sleeping

love, here’s a ring of gold, long years i’ve kept it
madame, it’s for your sake, will you accept it?
when you, the posy read, pray, think on the giver
madame, remember me, i’m undone forever

then away went this brave youth, and embarked on the ocean
to free americay was his intention
he landed in quebec with all his party
the city to attack, being brave and hardy

montcalm and this brave youth together walked
between two armies, they like brothers, talked
’till each man to his post, he did retire
then these numerous foes commenced their fire

oh, little did he think that death was near him
oh, little did he think that death was near him
’till shot down from his horse, was this our hero
we’ll long lament his loss in tears of sorrow

he raised up his head where the cannon doth rattle
and to his aide he said, “how goes the battle?”
his aide*de*camp replied, “it’s in our favor!”
“then,” says this brave youth, “i quit this earth with pleasure.”

bad news has come to town
bad news is carried
some say my love is dead
some say he’s married
