the great crash - regimental reunion lyrics

Loading...

cast away and make for home
forty years of foreign service gone
the flag’s rolled up, we’re pulling out
our guiding hand they’ll have to do without

the empire sent you to a foreign shore
you won the battles but you lost the war
silver medals on your chest
are all that you have left but rest

sail away, you’ll never die
happy hunting grounds are in the western sky
sail away, you’ll never die
happy hunting grounds are in the western sky
sail away, you’ll never die
happy hunting grounds are in the western sky

c+cktails with the ladies, a round of pontoon
drinks at the club and polo in june
dashing lieutenants in the officers’ mess
made a fool of some chaps i confess

writing dispatches in the afternoon shade
waxing moustaches for the morning parade
a burden to bear, frontier to defend
surely i wondered, when will it end?
the empire sent you, now you’re going home
forty years of foreign service gone
silver medals on your chest
are all that you have left but rest

sail away, you’ll never die
happy hunting grounds are in the western sky
sail away, you’ll never die
happy hunting grounds are in the western sky
sail away, you’ll never die
happy hunting grounds are in the western sky

sail away, happy hunting grounds are in the western sky
sail away, you’ll never die
happy hunting grounds, western sky
sail away, you’ll never die
