Martin Carthy - O'er The Hills lyrics

Hark now the drums they beat again For all true soldiers gentlemen To list and enter into pay Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain Queen Anne commands and we obey Over the hills and far away You gentlemen who have a mind To serve a Queen that is good and kind Come join with us and march away Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain Queen Anne commands and we obey Over the hills and far away He that is forced to go to fight Will never win true honour by it For volunteers will win the day Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain Queen Anne commands and we obey Over the hills and far away Although our friends our absence mourn We with all honour shall return And we shall sing both night and day Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain Queen Anne commands and we obey Over the hills and far away Hark now the drums they beat again For all true soldiers gentlemen To list and enter into pay Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain Queen Anne commands and we obey Over the hills and far away
