They were always very kindly in

at soldiers with their sons
and I marched them all around

And I battered them with my cannonballs
and I watched them falling down
With lots of little crosses which

Well whenever I went to the shop
Dm

to buy me guns and tanks

The man there always smiled,
patted me head and whispered thanks
If it wasn't for your soldier game,
D

Oh, one day I bought some aeroplanes,
but this is what I found
When I sent them in to fight and held

And I had to buy another hun

To me fourteen lovely daughters and
