Lyrics of Goodbye from (The White Horse Inn) by Josef Locke

My heart is broken but what care I?
Such pride inside me has woken
I′ll try my best not to cry
By and by
When the final farewells must be spoken
I'll join the Legion, that′s what I'll do
And in some far distant region
Where human hearts are staunch and true
I shall start my life anew
Good-bye, it's time
I sought a foreign clime
Where I may find
There are hearts more kind
Than I leave behind and so, I go
To fight a savage foe
Although I know that
I′ll be sometimes missed by the girls I′ve kissed
In some Abyssinian French Dominion
I shall do my bit and fall for the flag if I must
Where the desert sand is nice and handy
I'll be full of grit
You won′t see my heels for the dust
I'll do or die
You′ll know the reason why
When told of bold Leopold's last stand
For the Fatherland
Good-bye, it′s time
I sought a foreign clime
Where I may find
There are hearts more kind
Than I leave behind and so, I go
To fight a savage foe
Although I know that
I'll be sometimes missed by the girls I've kissed
In some Abyssinian French Dominion
I shall do my bit and fall for the flag if I must
Where the desert sand is nice and handy
I′ll be full of grit
You won′t see my heels for the dust
I'll do or die
You′ll know the reason why
When told of bold Leopold's last stand
For the Fatherland
Good-bye, good-bye
I wish you all a last good-bye
Good-bye, good-bye
I wish you all a last good-bye
