It was last Monday morning

Oh, as I have heard them say

Our orders, they came this afternoon
               D      G
We're bound to march away

Chorus

G
For the Lancashire lads have gone abroad
G
Whatever shall we do?
G
They're leaving many's a pretty fair maid
              D       G
To cry, "What shall I do?"

Verse

Said the mother to the daughter

And the whole wide world to range

Verse

For the soldiers, they are ramblin' boys
G
They have but little pay
G
Can they maintain a wife and child
           D       G
On fifteen pence a day?"

Chorus

For the Lancashire lads have gone abroad

You'll never marry a soldier lad

He'll be no son of mine"

G
"Oh, if you confine me seven long years

When I gain my liberty

For my true love's dressed in scarlet
G
And turned up with the blue

And every place that he goes in
        D        G
My sweetheart is true"

Now we've gotten sweethearts enough, brave boys

Girls to please our minds

But we'll never forget sweet Manchester

And the girls we left behind

Chorus

For the Lancashire lads have gone abroad
G
Whatever shall we do?

They're leaving many's a pretty fair maid

To cry, "What shall I do?"
