Thread Name: Would you sing Peggy and the Soldier
Subject: RE: Would you sing Peggy and the Soldier
The song is life as its best - or worst. And if the song has a fine tune, why not sing it? Wish I had your problems only ...

A German song about a warning to young girls of the soldiers billetting in town (with a fine tune) I didn't sing for some time until I was father of two daughters. Having been young and serving my time I know best what those guys want, and so I started to sing the song, often in the presence of my girls.
