Thread Name: history of English army song
Subject: ADD: I Don't Want to Join the Army
For the sake of discussion, it's best to post lyrics if we don't have them. these lyrics are from the site McGrath cited. Hmmm. I have to say I don't know the tune to "On Sunday I Walk Out with a soldier." -Joe Offer-
I DON'T WANT TO JOIN THE ARMY Tune: 'On Sunday I walk out with a soldier'
I don't want to join the army, I don't want to go to war. I'd rather hang around Piccadilly underground, Living off the earnings of a lady typist. I don't want a bayonet in my belly, I don't want my bollocks shot away. I'd rather stay in England, in merry merry England, And fornicate this bleeding life away.
