Oh how do you do, young Willy McBride

Do you mind if I sit here down beside your graveside

And rest for a while 'neath the warm summer sun

I've been walking all day, and I'm nearly done

And I see by your gravestone you were only nineteen

When you joined the great fallen in 1916

Well I hope you died quick

And I hope you died clean

Oh Willy McBride, was is it slow and obscene

Damn son, I love this song.

Here's one that a little older.

Two years older if I'm not wrong, great song as well. But the Dropkick one brings more tears, the Maiden one just makes me angry about how we humans act.

Yeah, two or three years though I almost automatically put Maiden songs in the 80s since that's when I listened to them the most. They are very good at getting you angry.
