I was brought up in Yorkshire and when I was sixteen

And so many were the pranks that I saw among the French

To think I lay with a thousand men and a maiden all the while

She went up to me officer and me secret she betrayed

He unbuttoned then my red tunic and he found that it was true

'It's a shame’, he says, 'to lose a pretty drummer boy like you’

So now I must return to me mum and dad at home
Em Am Em
And along with me bold comrades it's no longer can I roam
