John Edmond - Farewell Britannia Lyrics
Official




Oh, I can see a jacket
Of red and white and blue,
Some lions and a unicorn
A harp, a bulldog too
I see some shiny jewels
That sparkle in a crown
Some hearts of oak, some daffodils and hills of thistledown

Is this good-bye now, my Greater Britannia
Farewell Britannia, adieu!
Must I leave you now, my Greater Britannia
Will this be my last good-bye to you!

Must I say good-bye to David
And George and Patrick too
To Andrew and the cousins and to all the folks I knew
It was a family quarrel
And I'm too big to scold
You closed the door and left me here
Standin' in the cold

Is this good-bye now, my Greater Britannia
Farewell Britannia, adieu!
Must I leave you now, my Greater Britannia
Will this be my last good-bye to you!

I've got my red flame lily
My Bird of Mystery,
I've got my own young lion that will walk the road with me
The coat I wear just isn't
The one that I once wore
You'll find the old one hanging there behind your bolted door

Is this good-bye now, my Greater Britannia
Farewell Britannia, adieu!
Must I leave you now, my Greater Britannia
Will this be my last good-bye to you!
Will this be my last good-bye to you!
Will this be my last good-bye to you!
