Baz Lyr Add: I'm Asking You Sergeant, Where's Mine? (64* d) Lyr Add: I'M ASKING YOU SERGEANT WHERE'S MINE 12 Apr 98


I think someone asked for this recently.
This is from Billy Connolly on a Dubliners album.
I'm Asking You Seargant Where's Mine?

I'm lying in bed I'm in room 26
Thinking on things that I've done
Like drinking with squaddies and bulling ma boots
And countin' the medals I've won
These hospital wards there all drab lookin' joints
But the ceilings as much as I see
It could do with a wee touch of paper or paint
But then again mebbe that's me

Chorus
Oh seargant is this the adventure you meant
When I put ma name down on the line
All that talk of computers and sunshine and skis
Oh I'm askin' you seargant where's mine

I've a brother in Glasgow with long curly hair
When I joined up he said I was daft
He said shootin' strangers just is nae his game
That brother of mine is nae soft
But I can put up with most things I've done in my time
I can even put up with the pain
But what do you do with a gun in yer hand
When you're faced with a hundred odd wains

Chorus 3 times.

Regards Baz
