We're On Our Way To France — Irving Berlin

1St Verse:

All is ready so just hold steady We'll soon be going to the pier No more waiting or hesitating The time to sail is here Bye-bye mothers and all the others Who'll come to shed a little tear Don't cry Bye-bye Give us a parting cheer

Refrain:

We're on our way to France There's not a minute to spare That's why For when the Yanks advance You bet we wanna be there Goodbye

2Nd Verse:

Old Hoboken is bent and broken From soldiers marching on her pier While you slumber, a great big number Of soldiers disappear To the millions of brave civilians That we are leaving over here

We say Day day Give us a parting cheer
