Soldier and the Sailor

 

A soldier and a sailor were out walking one day
Said the soldier to the sailor
"I will teach you to pray
And if we have one prayer
may we also have ten"
And whatever I shall pay for
we must all say, "Amen"



And whatever I shall pray for
And whatever I shall pray for
And whatever I shall pray for
we must all say “Amen”


Now the first thing that we’ll pray
we’ll pray for some cash
Oh Glory, Oh Glory, we will go on a bash
And if we have one pound
may we also have ten
May we have the bank of England
said the sailor, “Amen”



May we have the bank of England
May we have the bank of England
May we have the bank of England
said the sailor, “Amen”


What shall we’ll pray for
we shall pray for some beer
Oh Glory, oh glory, that will bring us good cheer
And if we have one pint, may we also have ten"
“May we have a bloody brewery"
said the sailor, "Amen"




“May we have a bloody brewery
“May we have a bloody brewery
“May we have a bloody brewery
said the sailor, “Amen”


"Now the next thing that we’ll pray for
we shall pray for our Queen
And all the royal family, where’ere they are seen
And if she has one child, may she also have ten"
"May she have a bloody regiment"
said the sailor, "Amen"




"May she have a bloody regiment"
"May she have a bloody regiment"
"May she have a bloody regiment"
said the sailor, "Amen"


"Now the last thing that we’ll pray for
we will pray for some peace
From Cape Town to Belfast
from Glasgow to Greece
And if we have one year, may we also have ten"
"May there never , ever be another war"
said the sailor, "Amen"



"May there never be another war"
"May there never be another war"
"May there never be another war"
said the sailor, "Amen"
