Mary Travers (Peter Paul & Mary) did a lovely cover of this song. As often as I listened to it, there was a phrase I just could not understand! "Did the band play the last post and chorus." I'm happy to have found the words. 😇

joseph black......no..very much a scottish sang written by eric bogle. he wrote it after visiting a 1st world war cemetery in belgium. whilst walking throught the cemetery he noticed the young boys and so he wrote this sang out of respect for all of them. it is not about an individual soldier or an individual nation. look up his original title......no mans land ...for the proper words. his sangs are quite popular in ireland.

@brucecollins4729 it's about ( or I guess the subject behind the inspiration) is a presbyterian soldier from county armagh who was most likely in the 1912 Ulster Volunteers Force. Which is why it's popular among Ulster loyalism.

The line "I hope you died well" which was changed from the original wording "died quick" sounds to me a bit silly, nobody dies "well", certainly none of the soldiers in WW1 died "well". Whoever it was that changed this word, and also two or three other complete lines in this great song, has done it a disservice

Nonsense and utter tripe. Its called poetic license. Died well is so much more emotive and expressive than died quick.
