I started this thread way-back-when simply to add the tune for lyrics already in the DT. Probably good evidence that one should add the tune in an existing thread or at least put a clicky to the lyrics ...oops - I did that in the first post. Maybe just post the lyrics a few times - I dunno.

The other thread is Lyr Add: Home lads Home - it has the original CF Smith version and a correction to the DT version ("Mons" vs "Munn"). There are also some interesting bits about Mons. Again,
Another thread about this poem/song is here.
