and e good old Dutch & goddam Dutch/Drunk Last Night (61* d) RE: good old Dutch & goddam Dutch/Drunk Last Night 16 Jun 20


All round them, struggling in the dimness over ant-hill and ant-bear hole,
were other baggage-laden forms, faithfully padding the hoof. The "wooded
bunch," as became warriors were making light of their woes. From
their ranks came an occasional laugh and snatches of ribald songs set
to the opening bars of the "Soldier's March" in Fuast, accompanied
by bang and boom of a tin pannikin and some hollow article (perhaps
a bread box?).

Drunk (bang!) last night,
Drunk the night before (boom!)
Drunk (bang!) last night,
Never get drunk any more! (Boom!)


From the 1914 book Wild Honey: Stories of South Africa by Cynthia Stockley. Pg 308.
