GUEST,Lt. Col. (Ret) Alfred Eigenberg Lyr/Tune Req: I Don't Want to Be a Soldier (37) RE: need lyrics and music - Don't Want to be a Soldier 05 Oct 02


WWI version.
I don't want to join the Army
I don't want to go to war
I just want to 'ang around, Picadilly underground
Living on the earnings of a high-priced laidy
I don't want a bullet in me backside
I don't want me knackers shot away
I want to stay in England, jolly,jolly England
And fornicate my bloomin life, away. gorblimy.

Refrain:

Call out the members of the Queens Marines
Call out the Kings Artillery
Call out me mother, me sister and me brother
But for Gods sake don't call me

Second Verse:

Monday night me 'andwas on her ankle
Tuesday night me'and was on her knee
Wednesday night success, I lifted up her dress
Thursday night I lifted up her her silk chemise
Friday night I had me 'and upon it
Satuday night I gave it a bit of a twitch
But it was Sunday after supper was when I got it 'upper
And now it costs me 15 bob a week, gorblimey
((first refrain)
