Here's Forty Shillings on the Drum,
For those who Volunteer to come,
to list and fight and fall today
over the hills and far away

Chorus:
Over the Hills and o'er the Main,
Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain,
king george commands, and we'll obey,
Over the Hills and far away.

When duty calls me i must go
to stand and face another foe
but part of me will always stray
over the hills and far away

Chorus:
Over the Hills and o'er the Main,
Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain,
king george commands, and we'll obey,
Over the Hills and far away.

If i should fall to rise no more
as many comrades did before
then ask the pipes and drums to play
over the hills and far away.

Chorus:
Over the Hills and o'er the Main,
Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain,
king george commands, and we'll obey,
Over the Hills and far away.

Then fall in lines behind the drum
with colors blazing like the sun
along the roads to come what may
over the hills and far away.

Chorus(x3):
Over the Hills and o'er the Main,
Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain,
king george commands, and we'll obey,
Over the Hills and far away.
