At any time of day.
But now we're in the trenches
And the weather. pretty cold,
And water for Il real good wash
Is worth its weight in gold.
If we find a spot that's sunny
IN this land Of rainy France.
The first thing that we boys remove
Are hlouses. shirts and pants.
And when the other thing are off
We rub ourselves with soap.
And put the first things on gain
And hope and hope and hope.
We hone we won't he chilly.
And that the itch will stop as we'll.
And that the Kaiser and his gang

dive to tho ground. A native who
