Boys From Newfoundland (Traditional)

Well done, you boys from Newfoundland,
You done what you could do,
Ye done your parts to keep on high,
The old red, white and blue;
When shots and shells were flying fast,
You took a manly stand,
Ye showed the fighting blood
Was in the boys from Newfoundland.

No other regiment did so well,
As all the people tell,
And none did fight more brave,
For your parts you did them well;
A shout of praise on every lip,
For the gallant little band,
Who showed the fighting blood
Was in the boys from Newfoundland.

Your comrades all lay wounded,
But onward did advance,
Ye fight the foe like British sons,
While on the fields of France;
Well done, you boys from Newfoundland,
Your parts you did well play,
We will keep the home fires burning,
Until you return some day.

And never will the old flag fall,
If all will take their stand,
And do as much for England,
As the boys from Newfoundland.

Note: The red, white and blue refers to the British Union Jack.
