[00:00:14] Oh sergeant I'm a draftee

[00:00:16] And I've just arrived in camp

[00:00:19] I've come to wear the uniform and join the marshall tramp

[00:00:24] And I want to do my duty

[00:00:26] But one thing I do implore

[00:00:29] You must give me lessons sergeant

[00:00:31] For I've never killed before

[00:00:37] To do my job obediently is my only desire

[00:00:42] To learn my weapon thoroughly and how to aim and fire

[00:00:47] Oh learn to kill the enemy and then find out what for

[00:00:52] Oh I'll need instructions sergeant

[00:00:54] For I've never killed before

[00:01:00] Now there are rumors in the camp about our enemy

[00:01:05] They say that when you see him

[00:01:07] He looks just like you and me

[00:01:10] But you deny it sergeant

[00:01:12] And you are a man of war

[00:01:15] So you must give me lessons

[00:01:17] For I've never killed before

[00:01:23] Now there are several lessons that I haven't mastered yet

[00:01:28] I haven't got the hang of how to use the bayonet

[00:01:33] If he doesn't die at once

[00:01:35] Should I stick him just once more

[00:01:38] Oh please be patient sergeant

[00:01:40] For I've never killed before

[00:01:46] And the hand grenade is something

[00:01:48] That I just don't understand

[00:01:51] You've got to throw it quickly

[00:01:53] Or you're apt to lose your hand

[00:01:56] Does it blow a man to pieces with its wicked

[00:01:59] Muffled roar

[00:02:01] Oh I've got so much to learn

[00:02:03] For I've never killed before

[00:02:09] Well I want to thank you

[00:02:10] Sergeant for the help you've been to me

[00:02:14] You've taught me how to kill and how to hate the enemy

[00:02:19] And I know that I'll be ready when they march me off to war

[00:02:24] And I know that it won't matter

[00:02:26] That I've never killed before

[00:02:28] Oh yes I know that it won't matter

[00:02:31] That I've never killed before
