Wars Of Germany Lyrics - Judy Collins

Oh, woe be to the orders 

That marched my love away 

And woe be to the bitter tears 

I shed upon this day 

And woe be to the bloody wars 

Of high Germany 

For they've carried off my own true love 

Left a broken heart to bleed 

The drums beat in the morning 

Before the break of day 

And the wee, wee pipes played loud and shrill 

While yet the morn was gray

And the bonnie flags were all unfurled 

Was a gallant sight to see 

But sorrow for my soldier lad 

Who marched to Germany 

Oh, woe be to the orders 

That marched my love away 

And woe be to the bitter tears 

I shed upon this day

And woe be to the country 

Where our men are forced to be 

And woe be to the foreign wars 

That stole my love from me
