Lyrics:
Pogues The The Gentleman Soldier

It's of a gentleman soldier as a sentry he did stand He saluted a fair maiden by a waving of his hand And then he boldly kissed her and he passed it off

You don't have to tell them that you ever played this joke That you got drilled in a sentry box wrapped up in a soldier's cloak "Now come you gentleman soldier

lass You don't have to tell them that you ever played this joke That you got drilled in a sentry box wrapped up in a soldier's cloak "Now come you gentleman soldier
