peggy and her gallant soldier/the rolling wave - tinsmith lyrics

Loading...

come all ye lads of high renown
let me tell of a fair young maiden
as she arose one summer’s morn
just to watch the soldiers paradin’
they looked so bold and they marched so g-y
their banners flyin’ as the band did play
it caused lovely peggy to smile and say
“i will go with my gallant soldier”

she watched the soldiers to and fro
’til they were at their leisure
then peggy to herself did say
“at last i’ve found my treasure
but oh, how cruel my parents can be
to banish my darling so far from me
i will leave them all and i’ll go with thee
my brave undaunted soldier”

“oh, peggy, dear!” the soldier cried
“pray don’t act so unruly
for when i’m in some foreign land
believe me you’ll rue it surely
what if in battle i should fall
to the crash of an angry canon ball
and you so far from your daddy’s hall?
are you wise with your gallant soldier?

“i have fifty guineas in safe store
likewise a heart that’s bolder
i will give them all to the lad i adore
my brave undaunted soldier
so don’t say no, but let me go
and together we’ll face the fiercest foe
and pray kind providence should know
of peggy and her gallant soldier”

and when he saw she was so true
he could not stay hardhearted
he said, “my darling, i’ll marry you
and none but death shall part us
and when we’re in some foreign land
i’ll guard you, my darling, with my right hand
and pray that god a friend might stand
to peggy and her gallant soldier”
