Me and my friend Ronan make an epic song out of an epic poem 'Roman Wall Blues' By W.H. Auden
Thank you Mrs. Morrison for telling us about the poem

(Lyrics)
Over the heather the wet wind blows,
I've lice in my tunic and a cold in my nose.
The rain comes pattering out of the sky,
I'm a Wall soldier, I don't know why.
The mist creeps over the hard grey stone,
My girl's in Tungria; I sleep alone.
Aulus goes hanging around her place,
I don't like his manners, I don't like his face.
Piso's a Christian, he worships a fish;
There'd be no kissing if he had his wish.
She gave me a ring but I diced it away;
I want my girl and I want my pay.
Roman Wall Blues
Yeah, Roman Wall Blues [All Lyrics Reapeated]
