Testo Bless 'Em All - Bing Crosby
Testo della canzone Bless 'Em All (Bing Crosby), tratta dall'album Wartime Favorites 2, Vol. 6
There's a troop ship just leaving Bombay
Bound for the blimey shore
Heavily laden with time-expired men
Bound for the land they adore
There's many a bloke who has just missed the boat
There's many a lad signing on
But there'll be no promotion this side of the ocean
So cheer up my lads, bless 'em all
Bless 'em all, bless 'em all
The long and the short and the tall
Bless all the sergeants, the top-kickers too
Bless all the corporals and above all, bless you
For we're saying goodbye to them all
As up the gangway we crawl
No ice cream and cookies for stout-hearted rookies
So cheer up my lads, bless 'em all
They say that in camp you can have a swell time
We've heard it all before
Five in the morning you're kicked out of bed
To scrub up the barrack room floor
A private has really no privacy now
We're all behind the eight ball
No ice cream and cookies for flat-footed rookies
So cheer up my lads, bless 'em all
Bless 'em all, bless 'em all
The boys who have answered the call
Just to remind them they're on the right track
Stand right behind them and back that attack
That's the least you can do, after all
For those who must carry the ball
So keep buying war bonds, buy more and more war bonds
That's how to say bless 'em all
Privates and generals big and small
That's how to say bless 'em all
