Lady
(A Gulf Wars Song)
words: Padraig Ruad O'Maolagain
tune: Ruby by Kenny Rogers and the First Edition
I've polished up my helm and put new duct tape on my sword
Patched my ragged tabard and repainted my old board
I'm packing up the camping gear, I'm sure you know what for
Oh Lady, let's go to the Gulf Wars
It wasn't me who started that old yearly Gulf Wars fight
But I am proud to go and help show Ansteorra's might
I want to get out there and slay the foemen by the score
Oh Lady, let's go to the Gulf Wars
It's hard to love a man who's been out fighting on the field
Especially a fighter who has never learned to yield
But a short time in the bath-house will improve my scent for sure
Oh Lady, let's go to the Gulf Wars
We're leaving now, so hurry, for I'm heading out the door
We've got a trip ahead of us, ten hours drive or more
Don't want to miss a minute of festivities in store
Oh Lady, let's go to the Gulf Wars
Oh Lady, don't forget to lock the door
