I Will Go - Paul Mounsey

I will go, I will go

When the fighting is over

To the land of McLeod

I will go

So here I am again

Beneath the troubled sky

Just waiting for the moment

When I’ll have to do or die

I will go, I will go

When the fighting is over

To the land of McLeod

That I left to be a soldier

I will go, I wil go…

Land of my people

Land of my love

Though others may say it is a dreary land

The sun has never shone on a place half so lovely

And though it is treeless

There are heather and rushes

In the dark green bent grass of the fields there

Growing in tresses side-by-side

I will go, I will go

When the fighting is over

To the land of McLeod

That I left to be a soldier

I will go, I will go…

I will go, I will go…

So here I am again

Beneath the troubled sky

Just waiting for the moment

When I’ll have to do or die

The sands of Kuwait can fill you

With loneliness and fear

Surely someone, somewhere, must be

Wondering why I’m here!

I will go, I will go

When the fighting is over

To the land of McLeod

That I left to be a soldier

I will go, I will go…

Land of my people

Land of my love

Though others may say it is a dreary land

The sun has never shone on a place half so lovely

I will go, I will go…

And though it is treeless

There are heather and rushes

In the dark green bent grass of the fields there

Growing in tresses side-by-side
