Kiss me goodnight, Sergeant Major
Tuck me in my little wooden bed
We all love you, Sergeant Major
When we hear you bawling "Show a leg!"
Don't forget to wake me in the morning
Bring me round a nice hot cup of tea
Kiss me goodnight, Sergeant Major
Sergeant Major, be a mother to me
Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
Bang, bang, bang, bang goes the farmer's gun
So run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
Don't give the farmer his fun, fun, fun
He'll get by without his rabbit pie
So run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
On the farm every Friday
On the farm it's rabbit pie day
So every Friday that ever comes along
I get up early and sing this little song
Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
(Bang, bang, bang, bang goes the farmer's gun)
Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
Don't give the farmer his fun, fun, fun
He'll get by without his rabbit pie
So run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
Ma, I miss your apple pie
Ma, I miss your stew
Ma, they're treating me alright
But they can't cook like you
Oh Ma, nobody's spoiling me
Like you used to do
They won't let me stay in bed until noon
At five forty-five they play me a tune
Oh Ma, I miss your apple pie
And by the way I miss you too
Bless 'em all, bless 'em all
The long and the short and the tall
Bless all the sergeants and WO1s
Bless all the corporals and their blinking sons
'Cause we're saying goodbye to them all
As back to their billets they crawl
You'll get no promotion this side of the ocean
So cheer up my lads, bless 'em all
Bless 'em all, bless 'em all
