Seth Lakeman - The Riflemen Of War lyrics

rate me

All you sailors old or young come light the guns on everyone.

We`ll take the ship and go to sea

Crush the north in `53

Fought upon a broken shore

With 20 thousand men or more.

We`re the riflemen of war.

All you sailors old or young come light the guns on everyone

Make that shot against their bow, we watched their maiden sinking down.

Fired aloud and the cannons roar

With 20 thousand rounds or more.

We`re the riflemen of war

All you injured old or young, come let's steal the gold for everyone.

Take the ship, to England sail.

Good heroes welcome, we'll prevail.

Pull the mast to better shores,

A hundred men were back on board.

We`re the riflemen of war.
