[00:00.27]My heart is broken
[00:00.87]But what care I
[00:18.66]Such pride inside me has woken
[00:20.37]I'll try my best not to cry
[00:38.55]By and by
[00:38.82]When the final farewells must be spoken
[00:39.75]I'll join the Legion
[00:40.17]That's what I'll do
[00:40.56]And in some far distant region
[00:41.31]Where human hearts are staunch and true
[00:54.96]I shall start my life anew
[00:55.53]Good bye it's time
[00:55.95]I sought a foreign clime
[01:08.16]Where I may find
[01:08.52]There are hearts more kind
[01:09.09]Than I leave behind
[01:10.02]And so I go
[01:17.31]To fight a savage foe
[01:22.11]Although I know that
[01:32.88]I'll be sometimes missed by the girls I've kissed
[01:34.38]In some Abyssinian French Dominion
[01:43.74]I shall do my bit
[01:44.16]And fall for the flag if I must
[01:44.88]Where the desert sand is nice and handy
[01:46.95]I'll be full of grit
[01:50.13]You won't see my heels for the dust
[01:50.88]I'll do or die
[02:03.93]You'll know the reason why
[02:04.41]When told of bold Leopold's last stand
[02:05.16]For the Fatherland
[02:05.61]Good bye it's time
[02:06.00]I sought a foreign clime
[02:06.48]Where I may find
[02:17.97]There are hearts more kind
[02:18.54]Than I leave behind
[02:18.99]And so I go
[02:32.13]To fight a savage foe
[02:32.79]Although I know that
[02:47.07]I'll be sometimes misses by the girls I've kissed
[02:48.03]In some Abyssinian French Dominion
[02:53.91]I shall do my bit
[02:54.30]And fall for the flag if I must
[02:55.02]Where the desert sand is nice and handy
[03:01.11]I'll be full of grit
[03:09.42]You won't see my heels for the dust
[03:10.29]I'll do or die
[03:10.59]You'll know the reason why
[03:15.75]When told of bold Leopold's last stand
[03:17.16]For the Fatherland
[03:17.61]Good bye Good bye
[03:25.74]I wish you all a last Good bye
[03:27.84]Good bye Good bye
[03:31.35]I wish you all a last Good bye
