《Female Drummer Mk2》歌词

[00:00:35] I was brought up in Yorkshire and when I was sixteen

[00:00:39] Oh I ran away to London and a soldier I became

[00:00:44] With me fine cap and feather likewise me rattling drum

[00:00:48] They learned me to play upon the rub-a-dub-a-dum

[00:00:53] With me gentle waist so slender me fingers long and small

[00:00:57] And to play upon the rub-a-dub the best of them all

[00:01:10] And so many were the pranks that I saw among the french

[00:01:15] And so boldly did I fight me boys although I'm but a wench

[00:01:19] And in buttoning up me trousers so often have I smiled

[00:01:24] To think I lay with a thousand men and a maiden all the while

[00:01:28] With me fine cap and feather likewise me rattling drum

[00:01:33] They learned me to play upon the rub-a-dub-a-dum

[00:01:37] With me gentle waist so slender me fingers long and small

[00:01:42] And to play upon the rub-a-dub the best of them all

[00:02:04] And they never found my secret out until this very hour

[00:02:08] When they sent me off to London to keep sentry over the Tower

[00:02:13] When a young girl fell in love with me

[00:02:15] And she found that I was a maid

[00:02:17] She went up to me officer me secret she betrayed

[00:02:21] With me fine cap and feather likewise me rattling drum

[00:02:26] They learned me to play upon the rub-a-dub-a-dum

[00:02:30] With me gentle waist so slender me fingers long and small

[00:02:35] And to play upon the rub-a-dub the best of them all

[00:02:56] He unbuttoned then my red tunic and he found that it was true

[00:03:01] It's a shame he says to lose a pretty drummer boy like you

[00:03:06] So now I must return to me mum and dad at home

[00:03:10] And along with me bold comrades it's no longer can I roam

[00:03:14] With me fine cap and feather likewise me rattling drum

[00:03:19] They learned me to play upon the rub-a-dub-a-dum

[00:03:23] With me gentle waist so slender me fingers long and small

[00:03:28] And to play upon the rub-a-dub the best of them all
