LUCY KAPLANSKY
Traditional, arranged by Paul Brady Come all ye lads of high reknown That would hear of a fair young maiden And she rode out of a summer's day For to view the soldiers parading They marches so bold and they looked so gay The colors flying and the bands did play And it caused young Mary for to say I'll wed you my gallant soldier She viewed the soldiers on parade And as they stood at their leisure And Mary to herself did say At last I've found my treasure But oh how cruel my parents must be To banish my darling so far from me But I'll leave them all and I'll go with thee You wild undaunted soldier Oh Mary dear your parents love I pray don't be unruly For when we're in a foreign land Believe me you'll rue it surely And if in battle I might fall By a shot from an angry cannonball And you so far from your daddy's hall Be advised by your gallant soldier I have fifty guineas in bright gold Likewise a heart that's bolder And I'll leave them all and I'll go with you You wild undaunted soldier So don't say no but let me go And I will face the daring foe And we'll march together to and fro And I'll wed you my gallant soldier And when he saw her loyalty And Mary so true hearted He said then darling married we'll be And nothing but death will part us And when we're in a foreign land I'll guard you darling with my right hand In the hopes that God might stand a friends To Mary and her gallant soldier
