Thread Name: Origin: lyrics to Colonel Bogey
Subject: RE: Col Bogey march question
As a child, I remember an obviously sanitized version of Col Bogey that reached India during WW II, courtesy the tommies and GIs I guess. It went something like this:
Chorus:
Good luck to the boys in navy blue
The army and the airforce too
Good luck to women volunteers
etc. etc.
And the verse:
Hitler, we're marching on your tail
Hitler, no wonder you turn pale
Goering, the lion is roaring
etc Etc
