[00:14.870]Come all you lads of high renown that will hear of a fair young maiden
[00:21.350]And she roved out on a summer's day for to view the soldier's parading
[00:27.710]They march so bold and they look so gay
[00:31.500]The colours fine and the bands did play
[00:34.860]And it caused young Mary for to say
[00:38.050]"I'll wed you me gallant soldier"
[00:45.200]She viewed the soldiers on parade and as they stood at their leisure
[00:51.950]And Mary to herself did say, at last they find the treasure
[00:58.410]But oh how cruel my parents must be
[01:02.150]To banish my darling so far from me
[01:05.610]Well, I'll leave them all and I'll go with thee
[01:08.720]Me bold and undaunted soldier
[01:15.940]Oh Mary dear, your parents' love I pray don't be unruly
[01:22.620]For when you're in a foreign land, believe me you'll rue it surely
[01:29.350]Perhaps in battle I might fall
[01:32.780]From a shot from an angry cannonball
[01:36.660]And you're so far from your daddy's hall
[01:39.450]Be advised by a gallant soldier
[02:11.520]And I have 50 guineas in right gold, likewise a hearth that's burning
[02:18.240]And I'd leave them all and I'd go with you me bold undaunted soldier
[02:24.990]So don't say no but let me go
[02:29.000]And I will face the daring foe
[02:32.300]And we'll march together, to and fro
[02:35.400]And I'll wed you, my gallant soldier
[02:43.030]And when he saw her loyalty and Mary so true-hearted
[02:49.670]He said, me darling, married
[02:51.870]We'll be and nothing but death will part us
[02:56.370]And when we're in a foreign land
[03:00.020]I'll guard you, darling, with my right hand
[03:03.780]And hopes that God might stand a friend
[03:06.750]With Mary and her gallant soldier
