SOLDIER, SOLDIER
Soldier, soldier, will you marry me now
With a hey, with a ho, to the sound of a drum
Arrah, no fair maid, I couldn't marry you
Because I have no boots to put on
She went to the shop just as quick as she could run
With a hey, with a ho, to the sound of a drum
And she bought him the boots of the very, very best
Ah, here, my small man, put these on
Soldier, soldier, will you marry me now
With a hey, with a ho, to the sound of a drum
Arrah, no fair maid, I couldn't marry you
Because I have no shirt to put on
She went to the shop just as quick as she could run
With a hey, with a ho, to the sound of a drum
And she bought him the shirt of the very, very best
Ah, here, my small man, put this on
Soldier, soldier, will you marry me now
With a hey, with a ho, to the sound of a drum
Arrah, no fair maid, I couldn't marry you
Because I have no socks to put on
She went to the shop just as quick as she could run
With a hey, with a ho, to the sound of a drum
And she bought him the socks of the very, very best
Ah, here, my small man, put these on
Soldier, soldier, will you marry me now
With a hey, with a ho, to the sound of a drum
Arrah, no fair maid, I couldn't marry you
Because I have no suit to put on
She went to the shop just as quick as she could run
With a hey, with a ho, to the sound of a drum
And she bought him a suit of the very, very best
Ah, here, my small man, put this on
Soldier, soldier, will you marry me now
With a hey, with a ho, to the sound of a drum
Arrah, no fair maid, I couldn't marry you
Because I have my old wife at home
