Said, “soldier, now soldier
Would you marry me
Before the fight comes on?â€
“how can I marry
Such a pretty little girl
When I got no suit to put on?â€
Well she went to the dry goods store
Hard as she could run
She bought the finest
Little suit in the store,
“come on soldier put this onâ€
Said, “soldier, now soldier
Would you marry me
Before the fight comes on?â€
“how can I marry
Such a pretty little girl
When I got no shoes to put onâ€
Well she went to the dry goods store
Hard as she could run
She bought the finest
Little shoes in the store
“come on soldier put these onâ€
Said, “soldier, now soldier
Would you marry me
Before the fight comes on?â€
“how can I marry
Such a pretty little girl
When I got no hat to put on?â€
Well she went to the dry goods store
Hard as she could run
She bought the finest
Little hat in the store
“come on soldier put this onâ€
Said, “soldier, now soldier
Would you marry me
Before the fight comes on?â€
“how can I marry
Such an ugly little girl
