Our Sergeant-Major jumped from 40,000 feet
Our Sergeant-Major jumped from 40,000 feet
Our Sergeant-Major jumped from 40,000 feet
And he ain't gonna no more
CHORUS:
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
When you're hanging by you braces and you don't know how to fly
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
And he ain't gonna no more
The man who packed the parachutes forgot to pack the strings
The man who packed the parachutes forgot to pack the strings
The man who packed the parachutes forgot to pack the strings
And he ain't gonna no more
They scraped him off the runway like a lump of strawberry jam
They scraped him off the runway like a lump of strawberry jam
They scraped him off the runway like a lump of strawberry jam
And he ain't gonna no more
They put him in a jamjar and they sent him home to mum
They put him in a jamjar and they sent him home to mum
They put him in a jamjar and they sent him home to mum
And he ain't gonna no more
She put him on the mantlepiece for everyone to see
She put him on the mantlepiece for everyone to see
She put him on the mantlepiece for everyone to see
And he ain't gonna no more
The vicar came to tea, and he spread him on the toast
The vicar came to tea, and he spread him on the toast
The vicar came to tea, and he spread him on the toast
And he ain't gonna no more
