    The Happy Wanderer

    I love to go a-wandering,
    Along the mountain track,
    And as I go, I love to sing,
    My knapsack on my back.

    Chorus:
    Val-deri,Val-dera,
    Val-deri,
    Val-dera-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
    Val-deri,Val-dera.
    My knapsack on my back.

    I love to wander by the stream
    That dances in the sun,
    So joyously it calls to me,
    "Come! Join my happy song!"

    I wave my hat to all I meet,
    And they wave back to me,
    And blackbirds call so loud and sweet
    From ev'ry green wood tree.

    High overhead, the skylarks wing,
    They never rest at home
    But just like me, they love to sing,
    As o'er the world we roam.

    Oh, may I go a-wandering
    Until the day I die!
    Oh, may I always laugh and sing,
    Beneath God's clear blue sky!

    or my own fav..
    Over The Hills And Far Away

    Here's forty shillings on the drum
    For those who'll volunteer to come
    To 'list and fight the foe today.
    Over the hills and far away.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.


    Karl.
