Jack Horntip Origins: Today Is Monday (71* d) RE: Lyr Req: Today Is Monday 27 Jul 23


This bit of nonsense was a favorite camp-song with the soldier, during the Great War. It illustrates the
philosophic good humor which is an outstanding characteristic of the United States Army and Navy.

59. Today is Monday

1. Today is Monday, Today is Monday, Monday bread and butter,
All you hungry soldiers, we wish the same to you!

2. Today is Tuesday, Today is Tuesday, Tuesday string beans,
All you hungry soldiers, we wish the same to you!

3. Today is Wednesday, Today is Wednesday, Wednesday sou-oo-oup,
All you hungry soldiers, we wish the same to you!

4. Today is Thursday. Roast beef, etc.
5. Today is Friday. Fish, etc.
6. Today is Saturday. Payday, etc.
7. Today is Sunday. Church (Ding dong.) etc
