Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Christmas in the Trenches From: Sandy Mc Lean Date: 17 Dec 07 - 07:48 PM I just to correct an error in the first post; John McDermott is from Ontario, not Nova Scotia. That being said we consider him to be one of our own and I believe that he feels the same. Micky MacConnell does a different song on the same theme with a more tragic ending. It was written by his brother. thread.cfm?threadid=64875 |

Subject: Lyr Add: CHRISTMAS IN THE TRENCHES^^^ From: Date: 30 Nov 99 - 03:04 AM CHRISTMAS IN THE TRENCHES (John McCutcheon)
My name is Francis Tolliver. I come from Liverpool.
I was lying with my messmate on the cold and rocky ground,
As soon as they were finished and a reverent pause was spent,
Soon one by one on either side walked into No Man's Land.
Soon daylight stole upon us and France was France once more.
My name is Francis Tolliver, in Liverpool I dwell. |
