Johnny Has Gone for a Soldier

Johnny Has Gone for a Soldier - Kronos Quartet (克羅諾斯四重奏)/Natalie Merchant

Written by：Traditional

Here I sit on buttermilk hill

Who can blame me cryin' my fill

And every tear could turn a mill

Johnny has gone for a soldier

Me oh my I loved him so

Broke my heart to see him go

And only time will heal my woe

Johnny has gone for a soldier

Oh my baby hold my hand

Call the rafe and come and done

Your father was my ultra light

Johnny has gone for a soldier

I'll sell my flags I'll sell my reel

To buy my love a sword of steel

So that in battle he may win

Johnny has gone for a soldier

I'll dye my pedicoat crimson ray

Through the world I'll beg my bread

I'll find my love all life or death

Johnny has gone for a soldier
