Texty

As the soldier and the sailor

Was a-walking one day

Said the soldier to the sailor

I've a mind for to pray

Pray on then, said the sailor

Pray on once again

And whatever you do pray for

I will answer Amen

Now the first thing I'll pray for

I'll pray for the Queen

That she have peace and plenty

All the days of her reign

And where she got one man

I wish she had ten

And never want for an Army

Said the sailor: Amen

Now the next thing I'll pray for

I'll pray for the Queen

That she have peace and plenty

All the days of her reign

And where she got one ship

I wish she had ten

And never want for a Navy

Said the sailor: Amen

Now the next thing I'll pray for

Is a pot of good beer

For good liquor were sent us

Our spirits to cheer

And where we got one pot

I wish we had ten

And never want for liquor

Said the sailor: Amen
