You´re a fine one, oh yes you are You´re a fine one just like me And we´re friends now, oh wouldn´t you say? We´ve been friends now, oh haven´t we?
Stay at home tonight if you know what´s good for you I can´t say more, it would be telling For if you don´t, what will become of you? Just isn´t worth any king´s shilling
I will answer when they make that call Pull upon this ragged uniform Up till now I know it´s been your trade Spit and polish the potato parade
Stay at home tonight if you know what´s good for you I can´t say more, it would be telling For if you don´t, what will become of you? Just isn´t worth any king´s shilling
Please don´t put your silly head in that pretty soldier´s hat
You´ve done your duty, that´s enough of that
I don´t know if what I´m doing is right I don´t know if you should be forgiving But for me it seems it means my life While for you it could just be a living
Stay at home tonight if you know what´s good for you I can´t say more, it would be telling For if you don´t, what will become of you? Just isn´t worth any king´s shilling
Please don´t put your silly head in that pretty soldier´s hat You´ve done your duty, that´s enough of that
