Jessie Pope - War Girls
Work rating: High

`There`s the girl who clips your ticket for the train, 
And the girl who speeds the lift from floor to floor, 
There`s the girl who does a milk-round in the rain, 
And the girl who calls for orders at your door. 
Strong, sensible, and fit, 
They`re out to show their grit, 
And tackle jobs with energy and knack. 
No longer caged and penned up, 
They`re going to keep their end up 
`Til the khaki soldier boys come marching back. 

There`s the motor girl who drives a heavy van, 
There`s the butcher girl who brings your joint of meat, 
There`s the girl who calls `All fares please!` like a man, 
And the girl who whistles taxi`s up the street. 
Beneath each uniform 
Beats a heart that`s soft and warm, 
Though of canny mother-wit they show no lack; 
But a solemn statement this is, 
They`ve no time for love and kisses 
Till the khaki soldier boys come marching back.
