The Cruel War lyrics Free Lyrics Provided By xee-lyrics.blogspot.com

Before the cruel war was on, I was so strong.
Now I am gaunt and drawn, now I am dying.

And now the cruel war is on, she brings me a son,
And I know some foreign one has been with her, lying.
I know by his cradle cry, I know by his whine,
I know by the black of his eye, hes no son of mine.

Now the cruel war is on, I must be ready,
Though theres no warlike bone in all my body.

Though theres no warlike bone in all my body,
Now the cruel war is on, I must be ready.
[ From : xee-lyrics.blogspot.com ]
Be ready, be ready, I must be ready.
Now the cruel war is on, I must be ready.

But how can I fell my foe with only an unstrung bow?
How can the war be won as long as my blades unswung?
Ill give you the grip of my hand, Ill give you my word,
He will come to his end on the end of your sword.

Ill give you my grip and word, you will be ready.
Ill give you my grip and word, you will be ready.
