The Call by Jessie Pope

Who's for the trench – Are you, my laddie? Who'll follow French – Will you, my laddie? Who's fretting to begin, Who's going out to win? And who wants to save his skin – Do you, my laddie?

Who's for the khaki suit – Are you, my laddie? Who longs to charge and shoot – Do you, my laddie? Who's keen on getting fit, Who means to show his grit, And who'd rather wait a bit – Would you, my laddie?

Who'll earn the Empire's thanks – Will you, my laddie? Who'll swell the victor's ranks – Will you, my laddie? When that procession comes, Banners and rolling drums – Who'll stand and bite his thumbs – Will you, my laddie?
