Good morning, good morning The General said As we met him last week on our way to the line Now the men that he spoke to Are most of them dead And we're cursing his staff for incompetent swine
He's a cheery old soul Said Harry to Jack As they slogged up to Arras With Rifle and pack

As we met him last week on our way to the line
Now the men that he spoke to
Are most of them dead
And we're cursing his staff for incompetent swine
He's a cheery old soul
Said Harry to Jack
As they slogged up to Arras
With Rifle and pack
But he did for them both, by his plan of attack
