marianne faithfull – ballad of the soldier’s wife lyrics
what was sent to the soldier’s wife
from the ancient city of prague ?
from prague came a pair of high heeled shoes
with a kiss or two came the high heeled shoes
from the ancient city of prague
what was sent to the soldier’s wife
from oslo over the sound ?
from oslo there came a collar of fur
how it pleases her, the little collar of fur
from oslo over the sound
what was sent to the soldier’s wife
from the wealth of amsterdam ?
from amsterdam he got her a hat
she looked sweet in that
in her little dutch hat
from the wealth of amsterdam
what was sent to the soldier’s wife
from brussels in belgian land ?
from brussels he sent her those laces so rare
to have and to wear
allamp; those laces so rare
from brussels in belgian land
what was sent to the soldier’s wife
from paris, city of light ?
in paris he got her a silken gown
’twas ended in town that silken gown
from paris city of light
what was sent to the soldier’s wife
from the south from bucharest ?
from bucharest he sent her a shirt
embroidered and pert, that rumanian shirt
from the south from bucharest
what was sent to the soldier’s wife
from the far-off russian land ?
from russia there came just a widow’s veil
for her dead to bewail in her widow’s veil
from the far-off russian land
from the far-off russian land
