Over the Hills and Far Away

Lyrics

Here's forty shillings on the drum
 To those who volunteer to come
 To 'list and fight the foe today
 Over the hills and far away
 O'er the hills and o'er the main
 Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain
 King George commands and we obey
 Over the hills and far away
 ♪
 Through smoke and fire and shot and shell
 And to the very walls of Hell
 But we shall stand and we shall stay
 Over the hills and far away
 O'er the hills and o'er the main
 Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain
 King George commands and we obey
 Over the hills and far away
 ♪
 If I should fall to rise no more
 As many comrades did before
 Then ask the fifes and drums to play
 Over the hills and far away
 Then fall in lads behind the drum
 With colors blazing like the sun
 Along the road to come what may
 Over the hills and far away
 O'er the hills and o'er the main
 Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain
 King George commands and we obey
 Over the hills and far away
 O'er the hills and o'er the main
 Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain
 King George commands and we obey
 Over the hills and far away
