Brigade Of Broken Hearts:Paul Evans.
DNC on LONDON Records in 1960.
INTRO:
#1.
The general is a man whose true love ran away.
The colonel found his sweetheart in another s
arms.
The captain also learned that love just doesn t
pay..and now that I have lost your charms..
CHORUS:
I think I ll join the brigade, the brigade of
broken hearts..where instead of reveille they
play the blues.
We never won a war in the battle of l amour..
the brigade of broken hearts.
#2.
You said you d always love me and that I would
be..the only one whose arms would ever hold you near.
But then last night your lips and arms deserted me..
here comes another volunteer..
CHORUS:
to sign up for the brigade, the brigade of broken
hearts.
Where instead of reveille they play the blues.
We never won a war in the battle of l amour..
the brigade of broken hearts.
(INTERLUDE:) ..
#3.
Instead of rifles they all carry handkerchiefs..so, they
can wipe away each sad and lonely tear.
I better get another dozen handkerchiefs..I m the biggest
loser of the year.
CHORUS:
I m gonna join the brigade, the brigade of broken hearts..
where instead of reveille they play the blues.
We never won a war in the battle of l amour..the brigade
of broken hearts.
OUTRO: ..(x2)
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
