"I'll show them the meaning right away of
"Carry On"
If a Yank invites me to dine or sup
And freely partake of the gladdening cup
And asks if he dare, steal one little kiss
I'll say "Sir you know that the Waacs'
motto is "Carry On"
She blued her pay + came in late
The sentry refused to open the gate
But she looked so sweet + free from guile
That he unbarred the portal + said with a
smile "Carry On"
She thought as she sped with flying feet
Not all in vain was that smile so sweet
But when she hears of my deed so ill
There is no doubt that the U.A. Will
"Carry On"
On spring did trully her spirit grieve
Never a rumour could she hear of leave
The doctor said, "you're a wreck tis true
But as that's nothing to do with you
"Carry On"
She died at last of a broken heart
She could no longer play her part
