| GOOD-BYE DOLLY GRAY | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
I have come to say good-bye, Dolly Gray It's no use to ask me why, Dolly Gray There's a murmur in the air, you can hear it everywhere It is time to do and dare, Dolly Gray Don't you hear the tramp of feet, Dolly Gray? Sounding thro' the village street, Dolly Gray ‘Tis the tramp of soldiers feet in their uniform so neat “So good-bye until we meet, Dolly Gray.” Chorus: Good-bye Dolly I must leave you Though' it breaks my heart to go Something tells me I am needed At the front to fight the foe See the soldier boys are marching And I can no longer stay Hark, I hear the bugle calling Good-bye Dolly Gray. Hear the rolling of the drums, Dolly Gray Back from war the regiment comes, Dolly Gray On your lovely face so fair I can see a look of care For your soldier boy's not there, Dolly Gray For the one you loved so well, Dolly Gray In the midst of battle fell, Dolly Gray With his face towards the foe As he died he murmured low “I must say good-bye and go, Dolly Gray.” Chorus: |
