Notes |
Text: Oh! How I love the volunteer, / Who eats his soup with conscience clear; / Who never runs-- except for meals; / who
ne'er the pangs of hunger feels-- /And believes in fighting there's no good, / Unless his belly's full of food. / See him;
beside that iron pot; / He longs for me to shar his let, / And I, alas, can not go.
