Wars Of Germany
Judy Collins
Judy Collins - Wars Of Germany [Intro] [Verse 1] Oh woe be to the orders That marched my love away And woe be to the bitter tears I shed upon this day [Verse 2] And woe be to the bloody wars Of high Germany For they’ve carried off my own true love Left a broken heart to bleed [Verse 3] The drums beat in the morning Before the break of day And the wee wee pipes played loud and shrill While yet the morn was grey [Verse 4] And the bonnie flags were all unfurled Was a gallant sight to see But sorrow for my soldier lad Who marched to Germany [Verse 5] Oh woe be to the orders That marched my love away And woe be to the bitter tears I shed upon this day [Verse 6] And woe be to the country Where our men are forced to be And woe be to the foreign wars That stole my love from me
