THE DAY MISTER SHAW WENT TO WAR

He thought the sun was out but wasn't sure
The day Mister Shaw went to war 
His friends all cried but his mum cried more
The day Mister Shaw went to war 

He wondered what he was fighting for 
The day Mister Shaw went to war 
His officer said the world he would explore 
The day Mister Shaw went to war 

He would finish up dead in 1944
The day Mister Shaw went to war 
His comrades saw blood guts and gore 
The day Mister Shaw went to war
