Lyrics

Soldier, soldier, will you marry me With your musket, fife and drum? Oh how can I marry such a pretty little girl When I have no coat to put on?

Off to the tailor she did go As fast as she could run She brought him back the finest that was there Now soldier, put it on

Soldier, soldier, will you marry me With your musket, fife and drum? Oh how can I marry such a pretty little girl When I have no shoes to put on?

Off to the cobbler she did go As fast as she could run She brought him back the finest that was there Now soldier, put them on

Soldier, soldier, will you marry me With your musket, fife and drum? Oh how can I marry such a pretty little girl When I have no hat to put on?

Off to the hatter she did go As fast as she could run She brought him back the finest that was there Now soldier, put it on

Soldier, soldier, will you marry me With your musket, fife and drum? Oh how can I marry such a pretty little girl When I've a wife and child at home?
