He drinks a lot of beer, and then begins to shout<br />
Our Captain he is mighty, he drives the foemen out.<br />
The drummer he is crazy, he hasn't sword or shield<br />
The drummer he is crazy when he leads us to the field<br />
He leads us to the field with the beating of his drum<br />
The drummer may be crazy but he's got them on the run.<br />
We really like the archers with their bows of finest yew<br />
We really like the archers because their aim is true<br />
Because their aim is true they hit when they let fly<br />
We really like the archers -- we just watch our foemen die<br />
(Refrain: Repeat first verse.)<br />
When we come to a castle it's the sappers turn to shine<br />
When we come to a castle they dig down and start to mine<br />
They dig down and start to mine 'till they're underneath the wall<br />
When we come to a castle, we sit back and watch it fall.<br />
The spearmen stand behind us with their shafts held in their hands<br />
The spearmen stand behind us, but we are not un-manned.<br />
We are not un-manned for when they begin to play<br />
The spearmen stand behind us; 'tis the foe in front they slay.<br />
The cavalry is ready on the flanks to either side<br />
The cavalry is ready, o'er the foemen they will ride<br />
O'er the foemen they will ride, and break their ranks in twain<br />
Then the cavalry stands ready, to do it all again.<br />

We're really very happy that the cook is on our side<br />
We're really very happy that he does his work with pride<br />
He does his work with pride, and each day we praise his skill<br />
We're really very happy that he don't know how to kill.<br />
The doctor has a saw and knife and buckets for the gore<br />
The doctor has a saw and knife and potions by the score<br />
And potions by the score, to ease us when we bleed.<br />
The doctor has a saw and knife we hope he doesn't need<br />
The teamster yells and curses at the horses and the cart<br />
The teamster yells and curses because they're hard to start<br />
Because they're hard to start, he's bringing up the rear.<br />
The teamster yells and curses, but he carries all the gear.<br />
(Refrain)<br />
