We go walking on the green grass, Thus Thus Thus
Come all you pretty families come walk along with us
So pretty and so fair as you take yourself to be
I'll choose you for a partner, come walk along with me
I would not marry a blacksmith, he smelters doors and chain
I'd rather marry a soldier boy that marches through the wind
O soldier boy, o soldier boy, o soldier boy for me
If ever i get married, a soldier's wife i'll be
Instrumentals...
I would not marry a farmer, they're always selling grain
I'd rather marry a soldier boy that marches through the rain
O soldier boy, o soldier boy, o soldier boy for me
If ever i get married, a soldier's wife i'll be
I would not marry a doctor, they're always killing the sick
I'd rather marry a soldier boy that marches double quick
O soldier boy, o soldier boy, o soldier boy for me
If ever i get married, a soldier's wife i'll be
Instrumentals...
We go walking up the green grass, Thus Thus Thus
Come all you pretty families come walk along with us
So pretty and so fair as you take yourself to be
I'll choose you for a partner, come walk along with me
