This is from my latest album 'As someone once said...'.
The period of history known as the English Civil Wars is fascinating, not for the fighting itself which was sad to the extreme, but the social history which saw these Isles ripped apart in ways not seen before or since. The lyrics for this song come from a Sealed Knot website www.englishcivilwar.com/songs/oldcharlie.html but it has not been possible to ascertain the author (yet). The song tells the story of the wars from the Royalist side.
