When I was young I used to be
As fine a man as ever you'd see
The Prince of Wales, he said to me
"Come and join the British army."
When I was young I had a twist
Of punching babies with me fist
And I thought I would enlist
And join the british army
Too ra loo ra loo ra loo
They're looking for monkeys up in the zoo
If I had a face like you
I would join the British army
Sarah Camdon baked a cake
It was all for poor old Slattery's sake
I threw meself into the lake
Pretending I was balmy
Corporal Duff's got such a drought
Just give him a couple of jars of stout
He'll kill the enemy with his mouth
And save the British Army
Too ra loo ra loo ra loo
Me curse is on the Labour crew
They took your darling boy
From you to join the British army
Captain Heeley went away
And his wife got in the family way
And all the words that she would say was
"Blame the British Army."
Too ra loo ra loo ra loo
I've made me mind up what to do
I'll work my ticket home to you
And leave the British army
