King & Country - Seth Lakeman

Folding hills and a silver lane

A weeping maid an evening in the rain

Roses ramble and the trees hang low

We sit and drink to all good friends we

Know

`Tis I my love who'll leave in June

For twenty five days no more

Now mark that spot from whence I came

It's for king and country I`ll come back

Again

The first season passed without news

Two weeks gone and still no autumn

Tune

The leaves they weep for the loss of their

Spring

The dimming days they serve no better

King

`Tis I my love who fought for you

For twenty five weeks no more

Now mark that spot from whence I came

It's for king and country I`ll come back

Again

The wind blew in a few small drops of

Rain

She followed them `til her tears ran down

Again

I`ll do as much as any young man may

Please don`t sit and mourn I`ll come

Back rich and brave

`Tis I my love who fell for you

After twenty five months no more

Now mark that spot from whence I came

It's for king and country I`ll come back

Again

I'll come back to you on the longest day

I'll come back to you when I'm rich and

Brave

I'll come back to you

Out of the doorway her hands upon her

Head

The weeping maid her love was lost or

Dead

Her longest day had only just begun

She cursed the man who favoured for

The gun

`Tis I my love who fell for you

For twenty five years or more

Now mark that spot from whence we

Came

It's for king and country I`ll come back

Again

I'll come back to you on the longest day

I'll come back to you when I'm rich and

Brave

I'll come back to you on the longest day

I'll come back to you
