the banks of the leopold canal - the deep dark woods lyrics
time is a ticking my love
can no longer stay
sounds of the alarms
and i must go away
ordered out overseas
for many a weary day
to the banks, of a place they call leopold c-n-l
oh, willie, sweet willie
don’t leave me here alone
for i wish to god above
that i was never born
parting from you my love
i’d rather be buried alive
so stay home with me sweet willie
and i’ll be your loving wife
oh annie, sweet annie
surely can not stay
the government has ordered me
and i must go away
the government has ordered me
set up their command
and i’m bound away my love
for the leopold c-n-l
cruel was the war
when it first began
out of canada
we lost, many a man
out of canada
men were battered and torn
thousands lay dead on leopold’s sh-r-
sitting in the trenches
couldn’t help but curse
this cruel bl–dy war
had taken me from her
taken me from my sweetheart
and the place where i loved to dwell
and shipped me off to the bl–dy banks
of the leopold c-n-l
time is a ticking my love
can no longer stay
sounds of the alarms
and i must go away
ordered out overseas
for many a weary day
to the banks, of a place they call leopold c-n-l
to the banks, of a place they call leopold c-n-l
to the banks, of a place they call leopold c-n-l
