Seven Nations - N.O.T. (I Want My People Back) lyrics
The deaf old Duke he came to town asking all the men around is there any here who'd fight for me? the Czar in Russia wants the Dardonelles c'mon boys, let's give 'em hell in defense of Queen and our country not a sound was heard in the hall not a hand was raised just one old man he got up to his feet and as the Duke turned away, he said I want my people back I want them here with me I want my people back here with me Captain Otter went to Skye flags and banners flying high with all the usual pageantry he offered words and promises to any man who would be led to fight the Czar and tyranny just one sound was all that was heard across the loneliest bay and as he made his way back again he thought he heard the island say she said I want my people back I want them here with me I want my people back here with me Six young men from the 93rd at Balaclava bravely heard Colin Campbell's plea to stand their ground they made their way back home again far away from the battle din to find their families weren't around a tartan shroud was all that remained across their ruined houses lay and as they came on back down from the hills the wind behind them wailed away and it said I want my people back I want them here with me I want my people back here with me |
