Recruiting Sargeant

Two recruiting sergeants came to the CLB,
 for the sons of the merchants, to join the Blue Puttees
 So all the hands enlisted, five hundred young men
 Enlist you Newfoundlanders and come follow me
 They crossed the broad Atlantic in the brave Florizel,
 And on the sands of Suvla, they entered into hell
 And on those bloody beaches, the first of them fell
 Chorus
 So it's over the mountains, and over the sea
 Come brave Newfoundlanders and join the Blue Puttees
 You'll fight the Hun in Flanders, and at Galipoli
 Enlist you Newfoundlanders and come follow me
 Then the call came from London, for the last July drive
 To the trenches with the regiment, prepare yourselves to die
 The roll call next morning, just a handful survived.
 Enlist you Newfoundlanders and come follow me
 Chorus
 The stone men on Water Street still cry for the day
 When the pride of the city went marching away
 A thousand men slaughtered, to hear the King say
 Enlist you Newfoundlanders and come follow me
