jim moray - the 18th of june lyrics
all you people who live at home easy
and free from the trials of war
never knowing the dangers of battle
but safe with your family secure
know you the long scythe of destruction
has been sweeping the nation all round
but it never once cut with the keenness
than it did on the 18th of june
it began about five in the morning
and it lasted till seven at night
and the people stood round in amazement
they never had seen such a sight
at the thunder of five hundred cannons
proclaimed that the battle was won
and the moon in the sky overshone all
recording the 18th of june
oh, and what a sad+hearted poor boney
for to take up instead of his crown
but to canter from brussels to paris
lamenting the 18th of june
all you young girls with sweethearts go yonder
go daily to buy the black gown
it’s a thousand to one i will lay you
he fell on the 18th of june
sixty thousand all of the brave+hearted
and fell, made an awful paltune
and there’s many’s the sad heart will remember
with sorrow the 18th of june
oh and what a sad+hearted poor boney
for to take up instead of his crown
and there’s many’s the sad heart will remember
with sorrow the 18th of june
