It's a cold wind that calls through the darkness
But here's a home fire burns bright
To those that say "Go!" and those that say "No!"
Jolly good luck to the girl that loves a soldier!
ย
To the VADs, Munition heads and Land Army girls
To Wakefield's Nellie Spindler, lost at Passchendaele
To the sweethearts of the Tommies, to the sweethearts of the Hun
Jolly good luck to the girl that loves a soldier!
Jolly good luck to the girl that loves a soldier!
To the widows of the Frenchmen, morter-buried at Verdun
To Maria Boch-Garewa and her Death Battalion
To all those who think that having one
As big as theirs will stop the bomb
Jolly good luck to the girl that loves a soldier!
ย
To our little Mother and our sickened State
To our German sister nurses that you call for us to hate
Whilst our streets are coolly littered
With white feathers and disgrace
Jolly good luck to the girl that loves a soldier!
Jolly good luck to the girl that loves a soldier!
To those stood waiting hand in hand, and those who wait alone
To those who know the inconsolable despair of the unknown
To those for whom only shells of men
Or ghosts of men come marching home
ย
Singing, "Glory, glory, hallelujah!"
