Here's my Dad's version based loosley (Ithink) on Peter Paul and Mary's Gone the Rainbow:


Shule, shule shulearoo
Bm    F#7   Bm
Shule a rak shak shule a bab ba coo
D       F#m      Bm
When I saw my Sally Babby Beal com bibble in the boo shy lorey
D      F#m    G          Bm       F#m          F#7    Bm



Here I sit on Buttermilk Hill
Bm    A      G          Bm
Who could blame me cry my fill
D         F#m      Bm
Every tear could turn a mill
D    F#m         Bm    G
Johnny's gone for a soldier
Bm       F#m       Bm

Chorus

Sold my flax, sold my wheel
For to buy a swrod of steel
so it in battle he could wield
Johhny's gone for a soldier

Chorus

Oh my baby, oh my love
gone the rainbow, gone the dove
your father was my only love
now he's gone for a soldier

Chorus
