Lyrics
Oh ‘tis time to go what a feast we have been given
With our boys back from this bloody war
Such fine men they are for sure
Oh from many flags and race
Stand side by side they fight for freedom
With tear in eye they saw their comrade’s fall
Their hearts can take no more
What a time it was with all our boys
Many glasses tipped with tears of joy
Their dreams be filled with strife no more
Please come on home
Oh ‘tis time to go what a feast we have been given
With our girls back from this bloody war
Such fine girls they are for sure
Oh from many flags and race
Stand side by side they fight for freedom
With tear in eye they saw their comrade’s fall
Their hearts can take no more
What a time it was with all our girls
Many glasses tipped with tears of joy
Their dreams be filled with strife no more
Please come on home
