Poor Old Soldier |
| Oh, you poor old soldier, what will you become |
| When there’s no one left marching to the beat of your drum? |
| You fought all the battles and survived every one |
| Old soldier march on, march on |
| Will you join all the wounded old soldiers like you |
| And reflect on the glory like old soldiers do? |
| Will you tell of your comrades as they tell of you? |
| Old soldier march on, march on |
| Will you relive each battle with toy tin soldiers so |
| That those who were lost can survive? |
| Will you still see those eyes under dark smokey skies? |
| All those comrades who kept you alive |
| Oh, you poor old soldier what will you become |
| When there’s no one left marching to the beat of your drum? |
| Will the band still be playing as you lay down your gun? |
| Old soldier march on, march on |
| Old soldier march on, march on |
