There Was An Old Soldier

Oh, there was an old soldier and he had a wooden leg, He had no tobacco, no tobacco could he beg. Another old soldier, as sly as a fox, |: He always kept tobacco in his old tobacco box. :| 2. Said the one old soldier, "won't you give me a chew?" Said the other old soldier, "I'll be hanged if I do, Just save up your money and put away your rocks, |: And you'll always have tobacco in your old tobacco box." :| 3. Well, the one old soldier, he was feeling mighty bad, He said, "I'll get even, I will begad!" He goes to a corner, takes a rifle from the peg, |: And stabs the other soldier with a splinter from his leg. :| 4. Now there was an old hen and she had a wooden foot, And whe made her nest by the mulberry root, She laid more eggs than any hen on the farm, |: And another wooden leg wouldn't do her any harm. :|
