The Handsome Territorial 1934

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 22 Feb 2003

He wasn't a Gen'ral,
He wasn't a Colonel,
He wasn't a Major,
He wasn't a Captain,
He wasn't a Sergeant,
He wasn't a Corp'ral,
Just a member of the rank and file.
She took one look at him,
And her pretty little head
began to swim.
She liked his "LEFT!"
"LEFT!"
She had a good home and she left,
'Cos he was a handsome territorial.
She liked his
"EYES RIGHT!"
and wasn't she perfectly right,
For he was a handsome territorial.
"FALL IN!"
she heard the Sergeant yell,
thinking he meant fall in love.
[Shout] BOOM!
she fell!
She liked his "LEFT!"
"LEFT!"
But wasn't she terribly left,
As soon as the band began to play,
He pack'd up his troubles
and march'd away.
She lost her handsome territorial.
She liked his "LEFT!"
"LEFT!"
She had a good home and she left,
'Cos he was a handsome territorial.
She liked his
"EYES RIGHT!"
and wasn't she perfectly right,
For he was a handsome territorial
"FALL IN!"
she heard the Sergeant yell,
thinking he meant fall in love.
[Shout] BOOM!
she fell!
She liked his "LEFT!"
"LEFT!"
But wasn't she terribly left.
As soon as the band began to play,
He pack'd up his troubles
and march'd away.
She lost her handsome territorial.
He wasn't a Gen'ral,
He wasn't a Colonel,
He wasn't a Major,
He wasn't a Captain,
He wasn't a Sergeant,
He wasn't a Corp'ral,
Just a member of the rank and file.
