The Waterboys - Twa Recruitin Sergeants lyrics

It's over the mountain and over the main Through Gibralter tae France and tae Spain Put a feather in yer bunnet, a kilt upon yer knee Enlist, bonnie laddie and come awa' wi' me! Twa' recruitin' sergeants come frae the Black Watch Tae merkits and fairs some recruits for to catch But a' they've enlisted is forty and twa' So 'list, bonnie laddie, come, come awa' It's over the mountain... Oh laddie dae ye ken o' the danger you're in If yer horse breaks his leg or yer midden fa's in Yon greely old fermer, he widna' pay yer fee So 'list, bonnie laddie, come awa' wi' me It's intae the barn and oot o' the byre Yon greely auld fermer thinks you're never tired It's a slavery job of lowly degree So 'list, bonnie laddie, come awa' wi' me It's over the mountain... Oh laddie dae ye hae a sweethert at hame? If she kens you're afraid, will she no' be ashamed? You'll be back at her breest in no time at a' So 'list, bonnie laddie, come, come awa' It's over the mountain and over the main Through Gibralter tae France and tae Spain Put a feather in yer bunnet, a kilt upon yer knee Enlist, bonnie laddie and come awa' wi' me!
