There were club girls in the country
There were club girls in the town
And our country found the mready
As the great food ships went down
Let none forget their service
AS our bright girls pass along,
For although the war is over,
They are singing still this song.
CHORUS
Keep the garden growing,
Keep the Gamers glowing
Plant the trees, and hive the bees
Before they roam.
Can the beans and berries,
Dry the corn and cherries,
Boost the club work day and night
Til we "live at home.

And we see our glorious lassies,
Going out to SOW the seed
For a great and precious harvest

So our Uncle Sam" may load his

To send across the foam.
CHORUS
Keep your poultry growing,
Keep the home folks smiling,
Fill the pantry shelves with cans
To be used at home.
Don't be idle shirkers,
Join our band of workers,
Boost the club work day and night,
Til we "live at home".
