How do you do young Willy McBride?
Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside?
And rest for awhile in the warm summer sun
I've been walking all day, and I'm nearly done
I see by your gravestone you were only nineteen
When you joined the great war in nineteen sixteen
Well I hope you died quickly, I hope you died clean
Or Willy Mcbride, was it slow and obscene?
