One for the morning glory
Two for the early dew
Three for the man who stands his ground
And four for the love of you, my love
Four for the love of you

Well I like a little drink at the end of the day
To lift up my voice and sing
Spend an hour or two
With the fine ground brew
And I'm ready for anything

At the cross he sang there were sisters four
The landlord's daughters pair
And when all was quiet
On a Winter's night
I tiptoe up the stairs singing

One for the morning glory
Two for the early dew
Three for the man who stands his ground
And four for the love of you, my love
Four for the love of you

Then I got the call from my country
To go and fight the foes
Though I thought no more
Of the sisters four
Oh I was said to go

And I went to war in an armoured car
The Morning Glory was her name
With a mighty sound
We would fire a round
Then we'd load up and fire again singing

One for the morning glory
Two for the early dew
Three for the man who stands his ground
And four for the love of you, my love
Four for the love of you

One for the morning glory
Two for the early dew
Three for the man who stands his ground
And four for the love of you, my love
Four for the love of you

One for the morning glory
Two for the early dew
Three for the man who stands his ground
And four for the love of you, my love
Four for the love of you

One for the morning glory
Two for the early dew
Three for the man who stands his ground
