No Man's Land(Green Fields of France) - John Schumann and The Vagabond Crew/Eric Bogle

Written by:Eric Bogle

Well how'd you do private William McBride

Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside

I'll rest here awhile in the warm summer sun

I've been walking all day lord and I'm nearly done

And I see by your gravestone you were only 19

When you joined the glorious fallen back in 1916

Well I hope you died quick and I hope you died clean

Or Willie McBride was it slow and obscene

Did they beat the drum so slowly

Did they sound the fife so lowly

Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down

Did the bugles sing the last post in chorus

Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest

Did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind

In some faithful heart is your memory enshrined

And though you died wait back in 1915

In some faithful heart are you forever 19

And I can't help but wonder now Willie McBride

Do all those who lie here know why that they died

Did you really believe them when they told you the cause

Did you really believe that this war would end wars

Did they beat the drum so slowly

They sound the fife so lowly

Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down

Did the bugles sing the last post in chorus

Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest

Well the suffering the sorrow the glory and the shame

The killing and the dying it was all done in vain

For Willie McBride it all happened again

And again and again

It's happening again

Did they beat the drum so slowly

Did they sound the fife so lowly

Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down

Did the bugles sing the last post in chorus

Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest

Did the bugles sing the last post in chorus

Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest
