Verse 1

Two recruiting Sergeants came to the CLP

For the sons of the merchants to join the Blue Puttees

[G/f#]

So all hands enlisted, 500 young men

Enlist you Newfoundlanders and come follow me

Verse 2

They crossed the broad Atlantic in the brave Florizel,

And on the sands of Suvla, they entered into hell

[G/f#]

And on those bloody beaches, the first of them fell...

Enlist ye Newfoundlanders and come follow me

Chorus

And it's over the mountains and over the sea

Come brave Newfoundlanders and join the blue puttees

[G/f#]

We'll fight the Hun in Flanders and at Gallipoli

Enlist ye Newfoundlanders and come follow me

Verse 3

The call came from London for the last July drive

"Tell the trenches with the regiments; prepare yourself to die."

[G/f#]

The roll call next morning, just handful survived

Enlist ye Newfoundlanders and come follow me

Chorus

And it's over the mountains and over the sea

Come brave Newfoundlanders and join the blue puttees

[G/f#]

We'll fight the Hun in Flanders and at Gallipoli

Enlist ye Newfoundlanders and come follow me

Verse 4

The stone men on Water Street still cry for the day

When the pride of the city went marching away

[G/f#]

A thousand men slaughtered, to hear the King say

Enlist ye Newfoundlanders and come follow me

Chorus

So, it's over the mountains and over the sea

Come brave Newfoundlanders and join the blue puttees

[G/f#]

We'll fight the Hun in Flanders and at Gallipoli

Enlist ye Newfoundlanders and come follow me

Chorus

(Tap on your guitar the beat in this part)

And it's over the mountains and over the sea

Come brave Newfoundlanders and join the blue puttees

[G/f#]

We'll fight the Hun in Flanders and at Gallipoli

Enlist ye Newfoundlanders and come follow me

Enlist ye Newfoundlanders and come follow me
