THE SERGEANT'S WEDDIN'
'TT WAS warned agin 'er
That's what made 'im look; She was warned agin' 'im
That is why she took. 'Wouldn't 'ear no reason,
'Went an' done it blind; We know all about 'em,
They've got all to find!
Cheer for the Sergeant's weddin' Give 'em one cheer more !
Grey gun-orses in the lando, An' a rogue is married to, etc.
What's the use o' tellin*
'Arf the lot she's been? 'E's a bloomin' robber,
An 'e keeps canteen. 'Ow did 'e get 'is buggy ?
Gawd, you needn't ask! 'Made 'is forty gallon
Out of every cask!
Watch 'im, with 'is 'air cut,
Count us filin* by Won't the Colonel praise 'is
Pop u lar i ty ! We 'ave scores to settle
Scores for more than beer; She's the girl to pay 'em
That is why we're 'ere!
