STAND-TO!
I'd just crawled into me dug-out,
And pulled me coat over me 'ead,
When the Corpor-al
He begins to bawl,
And these were the words he said:
"Stand-to———
Show a leg!—Get a move on, You!—
Ye's can't lie and snore,
Till the end o' the war—
Stand-to!—Stand-to! STAND-TO!"
And pulled me coat over me 'ead,
When the Corpor-al
He begins to bawl,
And these were the words he said:
"Stand-to———
Show a leg!—Get a move on, You!—
Ye's can't lie and snore,
Till the end o' the war—
Stand-to!—Stand-to! STAND-TO!"
I was just a-dreamin' of 'Ome Sweet 'Ome,
A-top of a fevver bed;
And Sister Nell
Had looked in to tell
Of tea, and of toasted bread—
"Stand-to!"—
Of a sudden a change of view—
"Come on—you there—
Take a sniff o' fresh air—
Stand-to!—Stand-to! STAND-TO!"
A-top of a fevver bed;
And Sister Nell
Had looked in to tell
Of tea, and of toasted bread—
"Stand-to!"—
Of a sudden a change of view—
"Come on—you there—
Take a sniff o' fresh air—
Stand-to!—Stand-to! STAND-TO!"
