[00:00.00]Medley: The Recruiting Sergeant / The Rocky Road to Dublin / Galway Races - The Pogues
[00:20.02]As I was walking down the road
[00:21.77]A feeling fine and larky oh
[00:23.58]A recruiting sergeant came up to me
[00:25.46]Says he you'd look fine in khaki oh
[00:28.14]For the King he is in need of men
[00:30.08]Come read this proclamation oh
[00:31.96]A life in Flanders for you then
[00:33.77]Would be a fine vacation oh
[00:37.58]That may be so says I to him
[00:39.58]But tell me sergeant dearie-oh
[00:41.14]If I had a pack stuck upon my back
[00:43.27]Would I look fine and cheerie oh
[00:46.02]For they'd have you train and drill until
[00:48.02]They had you one of the Frenchies oh
[00:49.95]It may be warm in Flanders
[00:51.64]But it's draughty in the trenches oh
[00:55.49]The sergeant smiled and winked his eye
[00:57.55]His smile was most provoking oh
[00:59.31]He twiddled and twirled his wee mustache
[01:01.12]Says he I know you're only joking oh
[01:04.05]For the sandbags are so warm and high
[01:06.12]The wind you won't feel blowing oh
[01:07.62]Well I winked at a cailin passing by
[01:09.36]Says I what if it's snowing oh
[01:13.18]Come rain or hail or wind or snow
[01:15.24]I'm not going out to Flanders oh
[01:16.87]There's fighting in Dublin to be done
[01:18.62]Let your sergeants and your commanders go
[01:21.62]Let Englishmen fight English wars
[01:23.24]It's nearly time they started oh
[01:25.77]I saluted the sergeant a very good night
[01:27.46]And there and then we parted oh
[02:08.26]As I went down to Galway Town
[02:09.75]To seek for recreation
[02:11.25]On the seventeenth of August
[02:12.88]Me mind being elevated
[02:14.44]There were passengers assembled
[02:16.01]With their tickets at the station
[02:17.57]And me eyes began to dazzle
[02:19.07]And they off to see the races
[02:20.63]With me wack fol the do fol
[02:22.51]The diddle idle day
[02:27.15]There were passengers from Limerick
[02:28.77]And passengers from Nenagh
[02:30.33]The boys of Connemara
[02:31.90]And the Clare unmarried maiden
[02:33.40]There were people from Cork City
[02:35.08]Who were loyal true and faithful
[02:36.90]Who brought home the Fenian prisoners
[02:38.86]From dying in foreign nations
[02:46.24]And it's there you'll see the pipers
[02:47.80]And the fiddlers competing
[02:48.92]And the sporting wheel of fortune
[02:50.92]And the four and twenty quarters
[02:52.67]And there's others without scruple
[02:54.30]Pelting wattles at poor Maggie
[02:56.17]And her father well contented
[02:57.24]And he gazing at his daughter
[03:24.45]And it's there you'll see the jockeys
[03:25.82]And they mounted on so stably
[03:27.39]The pink the blue the orange and green
[03:29.33]The colors of our nation
[03:30.83]The time it came for starting
[03:32.14]All the horses seemed impatient
[03:33.83]Their feet they hardly touched the ground
[03:35.57]The speed was so amazing
[03:43.59]There was half a million people there
[03:45.03]Of all denominations
[03:46.03]The Catholic the Protestant the Jew the Presbyterian
[03:49.84]Yet there was no animosity
[03:51.53]No matter what persuasion
[03:53.03]But failte hospitality
[03:54.47]Inducing fresh acquaintance
