The girl I love waits for me now She'll be standing by the well She may have to wait until it's dry Because I am off to hell Speed the Plough I'll wait no more for fire from God Listen to me now Speed the plough, speed the plough I counted lines a pretty face From the tears she cried Her cheeks were bleached as white as snow As she kissed me goodbye We heards the hounds we could not see And knew our time had come I turned my back on prison farm And then began to run Speed the Plough I'll wait no more for fire from God Listen to me now Speed the plough, speed the plough The girl I love waits for me now She'll be standing by the well She may have to wait until it's dry Because I am off to hell Speed the Plough I'll wait no more for fire from God Listen to me now Speed the plough, speed the plough Speed the Plough I'll wait no more for fire from God Listen to me now Speed the plough, speed the plough
