Who'll walk me down to church when
I'm sixty years of age
When the ragged dog they gave me
has been ten years in the grave
And senorita play guitar,
play it just for you
My rosary has broken
and my beads have all slipped through
You've hung up your great coat
and you've laid down your gun
You know the war you fought
in wasn't too much fun
And the future you're giving me
holds nothing for a gun
I've no wish to be living sixty years on
Yes I'll sit with you
and talk let your eyes relive again
I know my vintage prayers would be
very much the same
And Magdelena plays the organ,
plays it just for you
Your choral lamp that burns so low
when you are passing through
And the future you're giving me
holds nothing for a gun
I've no wish to be living sixty years on
