She'd walk through the door and she'd set up the drinks on the house
She played a good game of darts, and the men slapped her back, never took
her out.
She wore a trenchcoat khaki, her hobnail boots were full of holes.
She's got medals.
Her mother called her Mary but she changed her name to Tommy, she's a one.
She went and joined the army, passed the medical, don't ask me how it's done.
They sent her to the front line, fighting for her country's name
She's got medals.
She got very tired of picking up girls,
Cleaning her gun, and shaving her curls
Then the enemy dropped a bomb, survivors there were none!
People say that when the moon is full and all the stars have gone to bed
You can see her ghost but that's a lie because the naughty woman isn't dead
She deserted on the previous morning
Replaced her uniform with dresses silk and green
Called herself Eileen
Came to London town
Now she's settled down
She's got medals
