Billy Boy - Millard Lampell/Joshua White/Almanac Singers
Written by：Millard Lampell
Will you go to the war Billy boy Billy boy
Will you go to the war charmin' Billy
It's a long ways away they are dying every day
He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother
Can you use a bayonet Billy boy Billy boy
Can you use a bayonet charming Billy
No I haven't got the skill to murder and to kill
He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother
Don't you want a silver medal Billy boy Billy boy
Don't you want a silver medal charmin' Billy
No desire do I feel to defend republic steel
He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother
Don't you want to see the world Billy boy Billy boy
Don't you want to see the world charmin' Billy
No it wouldn't be much thrill to die for dupont in brazil
He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother
Girls would like your uniform Billy boy Billy boy
Girls would like your uniform charmin' Billy
They wouldn't get much chance to love me with six feet of earth above me
He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother
Are you afraid to fight Billy boy Billy boy
Are you afraid to fight charming Billy
You can come around to me when England's a democracy
He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother
Will they take you from my side Billy boy Billy boy
Will they take you from my side charming Billy
Don't you worry mother dear I'm a stayin' over here
He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother
He's a young boy and cannot leave his mother
