Tommy, Tommy, English Tommy,
Pride of the blooming army,
What in the world
would we do without you Tommy,
Handy, dandy likes his brandy,
Manners so gay and charming
alarming but never harming,
Maidens' hearts he's calming
Tommy, Tommy of the army
You're the pride of joy.

Tommy Atkins is the Military man,
Tommy Atkins is the boy for Mary Ann,
Tommy, Tommy with your heart so big and warm,
Don't he look a picture
in his dandy uniform,
Tommy Atkins
all the girls are on your track,
Tommy, Tommy,
you're the pride of Union Jack,
Throw out your chest
and show your teeth
and smile with all your might,
You blessed blooming Britain Baby
You're all right, all right,
all right.

Tommy, Tommy, English Tommy,
born for the blooming army,
Ev'ryone knows
the swearing and daring Tommy,
Dressed for drilling
ever willing
willing to go parading,
parading or serenading,
Maidens' hearts he's raiding
Tommy, Tommy, of the army
You're the Romeo.
