"Tommy" you was when it began But now that it is o'er, You shall be called the Service Man 'Enceforward evermore, Batt'ry, brigade, flank, centre, van, Defaulter, Army-corps— From first to last The Service Man 'Enceforward evermore, From 'Alifax to 'Industan From York to Singapore— 'Orse, foot, an' guns, the Service Man 'Enceforward evermore.
The Service Man
