Lay Down Your Arms

　　Lay Down Your Arms - The Chordettes

　　Come to the station

　　Jump from the train

　　March at the double

　　Down lover's lane

　　Then in the glen where the roses en-twine

　　Lay down your arms Lay down your arms

　　Lay down your arms and surrender to mine

　　My sweetheart is a soldier

　　As handsome as can be

　　But suddenly they sent him

　　Away across the sea

　　So patiently I waited

　　Until his leave was due

　　Then wrote and said "My darling

　　I'll tell you what to do"

　　Come to the station

　　Jump from the train

　　March at the double

　　Down lover's lane

　　Then in the glen where the roses en-twine

　　Lay down your arms Lay down your arms

　　Lay down your arms and surrender to mine

　　A soldier is a soldier

　　And when he's on parade

　　An order is an order

　　And has to be obeyed

　　You've got to do your duty

　　Wherever you may be

　　And now you're under orders

　　To hurry home to me

　　Come to the station

　　Jump from the train

　　March at the double

　　Down lover's lane

　　Then in the glen where the roses en-twine

　　Lay down your arms Lay down your arms

　　Lay down your arms and surrender to mine

　　The girl who loves a soldier

　　Is either sad or gray

　　'Cos first of all he's with her

　　And then he's far away

　　But soldiers have their duty

　　To answer to the call

　　And that is why I'm calling

　　The loudest of them all

　　Come to the station

　　Jump from the train

　　March at the double

　　Down lover's lane

　　Then in the glen where the roses en-twine

　　Lay down your arms Lay down your arms

　　Lay down your arms and surrender to mine
