[00:02.25]Songs Title：the deserter
[00:04.56]
[00:23.54]As I was a-walking down Radcliffe highway
[00:31.22]
[00:32.08]A recruiting party came a-beating my way
[00:39.35]
[00:40.35]They enlisted me and treated me till I did not know
[00:48.06]
[00:48.82]And to the Queen's barracks they forced me to go
[00:57.63]
[01:03.23]When first I deserted, I thought myself free
[01:11.02]
[01:11.71]Until my cruel comrade informed against me
[01:18.39]
[01:19.14]I was quickly followed after and brought back with speed
[01:27.12]
[01:28.25]I was handcuffed and guarded, heavy irons put on me
[01:36.23]
[01:37.42]Court martial, court martial, they help upon me
[01:44.89]And the sentence passed upon me, three hundred and three
[01:54.11]
[01:55.23]May the Lord have mercy on them for their sad cruelty
[02:03.34]
[02:04.03]For now the Queen's duty lies heavy on me
[02:12.14]
[02:18.08]When next I deserted, I thought myself free
[02:24.54]
[02:26.17]Until my cruel sweetheart informed against me
[02:33.28]I was quickly followed after and brought back with speed
[02:40.58]
[02:41.70]I was handcuffed and guarded, heavy irons put on me
[02:50.38]
[02:51.00]Court martial, court martial, then quickly was got
[02:59.05]
[02:59.61]And the sentence passed upon me, that I was to be shot
[03:08.27]
[03:09.52]May the Lord have mercy on them for their sad cruelty
[03:17.76]
[03:18.88]For now the Queen's duty lies heavy on me
[03:25.62]
[03:27.43]Then up rode Prince Albert in his carriage and six
[03:34.99]
[03:35.68]Saying Where is that young man whose coffin is fixed?
[03:43.21]
[03:45.46]Set him free from his irons and let him go free
[03:52.59]
[03:54.02]For he'll make a good soldier for his Queen and country
