i wish the wars were all over - joan baez lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
down by deep water where sweet linden stand
i saw pretty polly wringing her hands
the song that she sung made the whole grove to ring
my billy has left me to fight for a king
and i wish the wars were all over

[verse 2]
i stood in amaze to hear what she said
i’ll follow my billy whether living or dead
the notes that she sung were the nightingale’s notes
how the lark and the linnet they warble their throats
and i wish the wars were all over

[verse 3]
i said my dear polly if you’ll stay with me
i’ll make you as happy as happy can be
no then she said that never can be
i’ll never be happy till my billy i see
and i wish the wars were all over

[verse 4]
now from my parents i’ll haste and away
i’ll dress myself out in a young man’s array
and every company that i p-ss by
i’ll ask for my billy or where he does lie
and i wish the wars were all over
