WILL YE GO TO FLANDERS	WILL YE GO TO FLANDERS?

Will ye go to Flanders, my Mally, O?	Will ye go to Flanders, my Mally-O?
Will ye go to Flanders, my Mally, O?	Will ye go to Flanders, my bonny Mally-O?
There we'll get wine and brandy,	There we'll have ale and brandy,
And sack and sugar-candy	Sack and sugar-candy;
Will ye go to Flanders, my Mally, O?	Oh, will ye go to Flanders, my Mally-O?

Will ye go to Flanders, my Mally, O?	Will ye go to Flanders, my Mally-O?
And see the bonny soldjers there, my Mally, O	Will ye go to Flanders, my bonny Mally-O?
They'll gie the pipes a blaw	There you'll see the plaidies swirlin',
Wi' their plaids and kilts sae braw,	And you'll hear the pipies skirlin',
The fairest o' them a', my Mally, O	Oh, will ye go to Flanders, my Mally-O?

Will ye go to Flanders, my Mally, O?	Will ye go to Flanders, my Mally-O?
And see the chief commanders, my Mally, O	Will ye go to Flanders, my bonny Mally-O?
You'll see the bullets fly	There you'll hear the captain calling,
And the soldiers how they die	See the sergeat crawling,
And the ladies loudly cry, my Mally, O?	And the soldiers, how they're falling, my Mally-O?

Will ye go to Flanders, my Mally, O?	And will ye go to Flanders, my Mally-O?
And join the bold hielanders, my Mally, O?	To see the bold commanders, my bonny Mally-O?
Ye'll hear the captains callin'	There you'll see the bullets fly,
And see the sergeants crawlin'	You'll hear the ladies cry
And a' the soldjers fallin', my Mally, O.	And the soldiers how they die, my Mally, O.
