Private Jones came in one night Full of cheer and very bright He'd
Been out all day upon the spree He bumped into Sergeant Smeck Put
His arms around his neck And in his ear he whispered tenderly...
Kiss me goodnight,
Sergeant-Major Tuck me in my little wooden bed We all
Love you, Sergeant-Major, When we hear you bawling, "
Show a leg!" Don't forget to wake me in the morning And bring me
'Round a nice hot cup of tea Kiss me goodnight Sergeant-Major
Sergeant-Major, be a mother to me Kiss me goodnight,
Sergeant-Major Tuck me in my little wooden bed We all love you,
Sergeant-Major Even when your neck grows rather red Don't forget to
Wake me in the morning And bring me 'round a nice hot cup of tea
Kiss me goodnight, Sergeant-Major Sergeant-Major, be a mother to me
