Good and kind. Ah, tell me now, my fair hostess,
Good and kind. Children three he left behind, But now three more with you I find,
Good and kind.
I had a letter from the war,
Good and kind. I had a letter from the war,
Good and kind. Which said my brave marine was dead, I thought it true ; again I wed,
Good and kind.
The brave marine drank out his glass,
Good and kind. The brave marine drank out his glass,
Good and kind. Without a word, while soft tears flowed, To his corps went back his road,
Good and kind. |
