I said to me Da, I said to me Da
I said to me Da I'm not fit for a soldier I said to me Da, I said to me Da I said to me Da I'm not fit for a soldier I said to me Da, I said to me Da I said to me Da I'm not fit for a soldier I said to me Da, I said to me Da I said to me Da I'm not fit for a soldier
For the king he say, the king he say For now you'll fight or I'll take your land away For the king he say, the king he say For now you'll fight or I'll take your land away For the king he say, the king he say
So over the seas, over the seas To kill a man that I have never seen Over the seas (x6)
I won't die for England! Not for England Not for England
I said to me ma, I said to me ma, I said to me ma I sail away now I said to me ma, I said to me ma, I said to me ma I sail away now
So over the seas, over the seas Far away from my Ireland Over the seas, over the seas, Far away from Isles of Green.
For the king he say, the king he say For now you'll fight or I'll take your children For the king he say, the king he say For now you'll fight or I'll take your children
So they send me away, they send me away To kill a man that I have never seen They send me away (x6)
I won't die for England! Not for England
Far away from my homeland Many miles, many miles I would roam Far from my home Far from my home Far from my home Far and away (x8)
I won't die for England! Not for England No Not for England No Not for England...
