Well, how do you do, young Willie McBride? Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside? And rest for a while in the warm summer sun I've been walking all day, and I'm nearly done I see by your gravestone you were only nineteen When you joined the great fallen in 1916 I hope you died well and I hope you died clean Or young Willie McBride, was it slow and obscene? Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly? Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down? Did the band play The Last Post in chorus? Did the pipes play the Flowers of the Forest? Did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind In some faithful heart is your memory enshrined? Although, you died back in 1916 In that faithful heart are you forever nineteen? Or are you a stranger without even a name Enclosed in forever behind the glass frame In an old photograph, torn, battered and stained And faded to yellow in a brown leather frame? Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly? Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down? Did the band play The Last Post in chorus? And did the pipes play the Flowers of the Forest? The sun now it shines on the green fields of France There's a warm summer breeze that makes the red poppies dance And look how the sun shines from under the clouds There's no gas, no barbed wire, there's no guns firing now But here in this graveyard it's still No Man's Land The countless white crosses stand mute in the sand To man's blind indifference to his fellow man To a whole generation that were butchered and damned Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly? Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down? Did the band play The Last Post in chorus? Did the pipes play the Flowers of the Forest? Ah young Willie McBride, I can't help wonder why Do those that lie here know why did they die? And did they believe when they answered the cause Did they really believe that this war would end wars? Well the sorrow, the suffering, the glory, the pain The killing and dying, were all done in vain For young Willie McBride, it all happened again And again, and again, and again, and again Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly? Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down? Did the band play The Last Post in chorus? Did the pipes play the Flowers of the Forest? Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly? Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down? Did the band play The Last Post in chorus? And did the pipes play the Flowers of the Forest?

Total crap that Maury was made to sit behind Jim during this show. Maury Muehleisen was every bit as gifted as Jim Croce if not more, and should’ve been front and center for EVERY appearance they ever did together.

that one song did more good to the cause of the catholics (or nationalsts) than anything Sinn Fein ever did. and certainly more than the IRA (any of it's many iterations)

Back in the 80’s seeing the Catholics get destroyed hurt me badly. I was young Catholic man who was very bitter here in the states. I couldn’t do anything from here to help the Catholics in Ireland. I wanted to flee this country and help the fight in Ireland. I was naive thank god I did not go because I had so much hate that maybe just maybe I would have gotten into serious trouble.

Stupid south american "left" and "right" wing politicians /brainless pothead coke sniffers militants still pretend that there is not and there was never poverty and social injustice in caucasian 1rst world countryes after the 1960's.In theyr delusion,URSS was paradise,Anglo Saxon America,Europe and Oceania wiped theyr asses with dollars while the 3rd world was an eternal victim of the evil white capitalists.Saying the truth: the plague is from our own people,our leaders,bosses,intelectuals and media groups exploit the poor and ignorant,and invite the foreign scum to do the same...they are all prostitutes.
