112 RICHARD BUTLER GLAENZER
��SURE, IT'S FUN!
What fun to be a soldier !
��— Everykid.
��Sure, it's fun to be a soldier ! Oh, it's fun, fun, fun. Upon an iron shoulder-blade to tote a feather gun ; To hike with other brave galoots in easy-going
army-boots ; To pack along a one-ounce sack, the commissary on
your track ; To tramp, tramp, tramp, to a right-and-ready camp ! Fun? — Sure, it's fun, just the finest ever, son!
Yes, it's fun to be a soldier ! Oh, it's fun, fun, fun, To loaf along a level road beneath a cloudless sun Or over fields of golden grain, kept cool by puffs of
wind and rain ; Then richly, more-than-fully, fed, to stretch upon a
downy bed And sleep, sleep, sleep, while the stay-at-homes
weep ! Fun ? — Sure, it's fun, just the finest ever, son !
Oh, it's fun to be a soldier ! Oh, it's fun, fun, fun. To catch the silly enemy and get 'em on the run ;
