《Gentleman Soldier》歌词

[00:00:00] Gentleman Soldier - The Pogues

[00:00:09] It's of a gentleman soldier

[00:00:10] As sentry he did stand

[00:00:12] He saluted a fair maiden

[00:00:13] By a waiving of his hand

[00:00:15] And then he boldly kissed her

[00:00:16] And he passed it off as a joke

[00:00:18] He drilled her up in the sentry box

[00:00:19] Wrapped up in a soldier's cloak

[00:00:21] And the drums are going a rap a tap tap

[00:00:23] And the fifes they loudly play

[00:00:24] Fare you well polly my dear

[00:00:26] I must be going away

[00:00:28] All night they tossed and tumbled

[00:00:28] 'Till the daylight did appear

[00:00:31] The soldier rose put on his clothes

[00:00:33] Saying fare you well my dear

[00:00:34] For the drums they are a beating

[00:00:36] And the fifes they so sweetly play

[00:00:37] If it weren't for that polly my dear

[00:00:39] With you I'd gladly stay

[00:00:41] And the drums are going a rap a tap tap

[00:00:42] And the fifes they loudly play

[00:00:44] Fare you well polly my dear

[00:00:46] I must be going away

[00:00:47] If anyone comes a courting you

[00:00:49] You can treat them to a glass

[00:00:50] If anyone comes a courting you

[00:00:52] You can say you're a country lass

[00:00:54] You needn't ever tell them

[00:00:55] Nor pass it off as a joke

[00:00:57] That you got drilled in a sentry box

[00:00:59] Wrapped up in a soldier's cloak

[00:01:00] And the drums are going a rap a tap tap

[00:01:02] And the fifes they loudly play

[00:01:03] Fare you well polly my dear

[00:01:05] I must be going away

[00:01:14] Now come you gentleman soldier

[00:01:15] Won't you marry me

[00:01:17] Oh no my dearest polly

[00:01:18] Such things can never be

[00:01:20] For I've a wife already

[00:01:22] Children i have three

[00:01:23] Two wives are allowed in the army

[00:01:25] But one's too many for me

[00:01:27] And the drums are going a rap a tap tap

[00:01:28] And the fifes they loudly play

[00:01:30] Fare you well polly my dear

[00:01:32] I must be going away

[00:01:33] Oh it's come my gentleman soldier

[00:01:35] Why didn't you tell me so my parents will be angry

[00:01:38] When this they come to know when nine months had been and gone

[00:01:41] The poor girl she brought shame

[00:01:43] She had a little militia boy

[00:01:45] And she didn't know his name

[00:01:46] And the drums are going a rap a tap tap

[00:01:48] And the fifes they loudly play

[00:01:50] Fare you well polly my dear

[00:01:51] I must be going away

[00:01:53] And the drums are going a rap a tap tap

[00:01:54] And the fifes they loudly play

[00:01:56] Fare you well polly my dear

[00:01:58] I must be going away
