he street sounds to the soldiers' tread,And out we troop to see:A single redcoat turns his head,He turns and looks at me. My man, from sky to sky's so far,We never crossed before;Such leagues apart the world's ends are,We're like to meet no more; What thoughts at heart have you and IWe cannot stop to tell;But dead or living, drunk or dry,Soldier, I wish you well.
