Thread Name: Songs about World War I
Subject: RE: Songs about World War I
Years ago on the radio I think it was on folk like us I heard a song sang by Lyn Percival but have never heard it since and can't find all the words, the chorus went sign up don't lose your chance there's plenty of room on the boat bound for france sign up for your king you'll advance flags never fly in the still. It tells of the reasons that young men joined up like unemployment and how little they knew about what they were facing. Does anybody know the lyrics to this song?
