Call The Roll
Early in the morning, down at the station,
See the little puff-puffs all in a row;
Man at the engine turns a little handle:
Choo! choo! choo! choo! off they go.

Call the roll, call the roll, call the roll, call the roll,
And we’ll meet you at the cookhouse door.

Early in the morning, on the parade ground,
See the little fatigews† all in a row;
Up comes the sergeant, gives them their orders:
Left, right ! left, right ! off they go.

Call the roll, call the roll, call the roll, call the roll,
And we’ll meet you at the cookhouse door.

Early in the morning, outside the sick tent,
See the little sick boys all in a row;
Up comes the Doctor, gives them each a No. 9‡:
Left, right! left, right! off they go.

Call the roll, call the roll, call the roll, call the roll,
And we’ll meet you at the lathouse¤ door.

† Men detailed for fatigue or routine drudgery.
‡ A pill; an aperient.
¤ Latrines.
