the clancy brothers & tommy makem - gallant forty-twa lyrics

[verse 1]
you may talk about your lancers or your irish fusiliers
the aberdeen militia or the queen’s own volunteers
or any other regiment that’s lyin’ far awa’
come give to me the tartan o’ the gallan’ forty+twa

[chorus]
and strollin’ through the green fields on a summer day
watchin’ all the country girls workin’ at the hay
i really was delighted and he stole my heart awa’
when i saw him in the tartan of the gallan’ forty+twa

[verse 2]
i never will forget the day his regiment marched part
the pipes, they played a lively tune, but my heart was aghast
he turnеd around and smiled farewell and thеn from far awa’
he waved to me the tartan of the gallan’ forty+twa

[verse 3]
once again i heard the music of the pipers from afar
they tramped and tramped the weary men returnin’ from the war
and as they near an’ drew i brushed a woeful tear awa’
to see my bonnie laddie o’ the gallan’ forty+twa
[outro]
and strollin’ through the green field on a summer day
watchin’ all the country girls workin’ at the hay
i really was delighted and he stole my heart awa’
when i saw him in the tartan of the gallan’ forty+twa
i really was delighted and he stole my heart awa’
when i saw him in the tartan of the gallan’ forty+twa
