TRUE BLUE

 

I.

Oh, Captain Jones is a Royal Marine,

Steady and staunch and true;

And every day he may be seen

Drilling the Wrens in blue.

 

Chorus:

With his`shon - right turn -

Mark time - as you were - form fours -

Stop that talking - you're here to learn -

You're Wrens, not ... Jackdaws!

 

II.

Oh, Captain Jones has a frame of steel,

Ready to do or die;

But nevertheless his heart can feel

The force of a Wren's "glad eye."

 

Chorus:

With his, `shon - right turn - .. .

 

III.

Oh, Captain Jones has a voice above

The average - loud and deep;

That also coos like a sucking dove

On occasion the peace to keep.

 

Chorus:

With his, `shon - right turn - ...

 

IV.

Oh, Captain Jones has a winning way

With ladies, both young and old;

He plays the game, and his stake they say

Is a sailorman's heart of gold.

 

Chorus:

With his, `shon - right turn - .. .

 

V.

Oh, Captain Jones is a Welshman bold;

Whatever to Goodness he

May do, we hope he'll live till he's old.

And never be lost at sea.

 

Chorus:

With his, shon - right turn -

Mark time - as you were - form fours -

Stop that talking - you're here to learn -

You're Wrens, not ... Jackdaws!
