Lyrics

John Tams aufgenommene Version

Here's forty shillings on the drum

For those who volunteer to come,

To 'list and fight the foe today

Over the Hills and far away


Refrain:

O'er the hills and o'er the main

Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain

King George commands and we obey

Over the hills and far away


When duty calls me I must go

To stand and face another foe

Here's forty shillings on the drum

For those who volunteer to come,

To 'list and fight the foe today

Over the Hills and far away


Refrain


O'er the hills and o'er the main

Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain

King George commands and we obey

Over the hills and far away


When duty calls me I must go

To stand and face another foe

But part of me will always stray

Over the hills and far away


Refrain


If I should fall to rise no more

As many comrades did before

Then ask the fifes and drums to play

Over the hills and far away


Refrain


Then fall in lads behind the drum

With colours blazing like the sun

Along the road to come what may

Over the hills and far away

But part of me will always stray

Over the hills and far away


Refrain


If I should fall to rise no more

As many comrades did before

Then ask the fifes and drums to play

Over the hills and far away


Refrain


Then fall in lads behind the drum

With colours blazing like the sun

Along the road to come what may

Over the hills and far away

John Tams Version von Over the Hills and Far Away

Diese Version wurde in der TV Serie gesungen.


Refrain:


O'er the hills and o'er the main

Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain.

King George commands and we obey

Over the hills and far away.


Sharpe's Eagle & Sharpe's Mission:

It's forty shillings on the drum

To those who volunteer to come,

To 'list and fight the foe today

Over the Hills and far away.


Sharpe's Company:

Through smoke and fire and shot and shell,

And to the very walls of hell,

But we shall stand and we shall stay

Over the hills and far away


Sharpe's Enemy:

Now I may travel far from Spain

A part of me shall still remain,

And you are with me night and day

and Over the hills and far away.


Sharpe's Honour & Sharpe's Siege:

Then fall in lads behind the drum

With colours blazing like the sun.

Along the road to come what may

Over the hills and far away.


Sharpe's Gold:

When Evil stalks upon the land

I'll neither hold nor stay me hand

But fight to win a better day,

Over the hills and far away.


Sharpe's Battle:

If I should fall to rise no more,

As many comrades did before,

Ask the pipes and drums to play

Over the hills and far away.


Sharpe's Sword:

Let kings and tyrants come and go,

I'll stand adjudged by what I know.

A soldiers life I'll ne'er gainsay.

Over the hills and far away.


Sharpe's Challenge:

Though kings and tyrants come and go

A soldier's life is all I know

I'll live to fight another day

Over the hills and far away.


Sharpe's Waterloo:

Old Wellington, he scratched his bum.

He says, "Boney lad, thee's had thee fun."

My riflemen will win the day

Over the hills and far away.
