Impromptu—"I'll Go And Be A Sodger"

     O why the deuce should I repine,
     And be an ill foreboder?
     I'm twenty-three, and five feet nine,
     I'll go and be a sodger!

     I gat some gear wi' mickle care,
     I held it weel thegither;
     But now it's gane, and something mair—
     I'll go and be a sodger!
