Can't find my book "Songs of the Civil War", so from unreliable memory - Liz, is the song you are referring to "The Rochester Recruiting Sergeant"? - the chorus starts 'who'll be a soldier' x 3 for Marlborough and me etc. If so, and yes the tune is Waltzing Matilda, it was written by Greg Butler of Strawhead! Great song.
