Paroles de The Scarlet And The Blue
I left me native countryI left me native home
To wear a soldier's tunic and preserve the old Queen's throne
I travelled out to India, the mutiny to quell
I have visited sweet Paradise and seen the gates of Hell
When we wore the scarlet and the blue
We took the old Queen's shilling when the Empire days were new
Forward into battle
Don't you hear the bugle call
Raise the tattered standard
Let me like a soldier fall
I've seen the Himalayas
I've been to Kathmandu
Seen sights to dazzle Solomon, the tales I could tell you
From Banbury to Bombay
The good times have gone by
Now don't believe the man who says old soldiers never die
When we wore the scarlet and the blue
We took the old Queen's shilling when the Empire days were new
Forward into battle
Don't you hear the bugle call
Raise the tattered standard
Let me like a soldier fall
Forward into battle
Don't you hear the bugle call
Raise the tattered standard
Let me like a soldier fall
I've seen the Himalayas
I've been to Kathmandu
Seen sights to dazzle Solomon, the tales I could tell you
From Banbury to Bombay
The good times have gone by
Now don't believe the man who says old soldiers never die
When we wore the scarlet and the blue
We took the old Queen's shilling when the Empire days were new
Forward into battle
Don't you hear the bugle call
Raise the tattered standard
Let me like a soldier fall
