| [00:13.146] |
To the tiny homesteads of the west |
| [00:17.091] |
The recruiting sergeant came |
| [00:19.903] |
He promised all a future bright |
| [00:25.164] |
So the brave men went off to fight |
| [00:29.124] |
For the Empire and her laws |
| [00:31.550] |
|
| [00:32.378] |
And many's a victory they had won |
| [00:36.290] |
Many hardships they had seen |
| [00:38.994] |
They fought and died side by side |
| [00:44.524] |
Their enemies they had defied |
| [00:47.327] |
And for a foreign king |
| [00:50.457] |
|
| [00:51.782] |
The drums they were a-beating time |
| [00:55.611] |
While the pipes they loudly played |
| [00:58.758] |
When Daly died the drums did beat |
| [01:03.660] |
That morning in the Dagshai heat |
| [01:06.736] |
Now we beat the drums no more |
| [01:09.739] |
|
| [01:10.863] |
While serving in a far-off land |
| [01:14.699] |
The news had come from home |
| [01:17.529] |
Of our people's fate it did relate |
| [01:22.941] |
Of the Tans and their campaign of hate |
| [01:26.094] |
And we're fighting on their side |
| [01:30.038] |
Arise, arise, young Daly cried |
| [01:34.034] |
Come join along with me |
| [01:36.768] |
We'll strike a blow for liberty |
| [01:42.393] |
A regimental mutiny |
| [01:45.146] |
In support of friends at home |
| [01:49.251] |
|
| [01:49.871] |
The drums they were a-beating time |
| [01:53.438] |
While the pipes they loudly played |
| [01:56.033] |
When Daly died the drums did beat |
| [02:01.545] |
That morning in the Dagshai heat |
| [02:04.396] |
Now we beat the drums no more |
| [02:07.632] |
|
| [02:08.802] |
And the colonel stood before his troops |
| [02:12.891] |
Those men who mutinied |
| [02:15.461] |
He told them of those honors won |
| [02:21.086] |
But the men stood in the blazing sun |
| [02:23.884] |
Saying we'll fight your war no more |
| [02:27.443] |
|
| [02:27.951] |
For cannon fodder we had been |
| [02:32.134] |
For the French at Waterloo |
| [02:35.009][02:40.510] |
We fought your every bloody war |
| [02:43.984] |
And we'll fight your war no more |
| [02:46.429] |
|
| [02:49.032] |
The drums they were a-beating time |
| [02:52.910] |
While the pipes they loudly played |
| [02:55.712] |
When Daly died the drums did beat |
| [03:01.300] |
That morning in the Dagshai heat |
| [03:03.982] |
Now we beat the drums no more |
| [03:07.629] |
|
| [03:08.145] |
Those men got penal servitude |
| [03:12.315] |
And Daly's condemned to die |
| [03:15.192] |
Far from his home in Tyrrell Pass |
| [03:20.684] |
This young man's died in Ireland's cause |
| [03:23.484] |
Far from his native land |
| [03:27.816] |
|
| [03:28.117] |
The drums they were a-beating time |
| [03:31.882] |
While the pipes they loudly played |
| [03:34.535] |
When Daly died the drums did beat |
| [03:40.061] |
That morning in the Dagshai heat |
| [03:43.386] |
Now we beat the drums no more |
