They say there’s a troopship just leaving Bombay,
bound for old Blighty shore
Heavily laden with time expired men, bound for the land they adore.
There’s many an airman just finishing his time,
there’s many a twerp signing on
You’ll get no promotion this side of the ocean

So cheer up my lads, Bless ‘em All.
Bless ‘Em All, Bless ‘Em All, the long and the short and the tall
Bless all the sergeants and W. O. ones,
Bless all the corporals and their blinkin’ sons,
Cos we’re saying goodbye to them all,
as back to their billets they crawl
You’ll get no promotion this side of the ocean

So cheer up my lads, Bless ‘em All
They say if you work hard you’ll get better pay,
we’ve heard all that before
Clean up your buttons and polish your boots,
scrub out the barrack room floor
There’s many a rookie has taken it in, hook line and sinker an’ all
You’ll get no promotion this side of the ocean

So cheer up my lads, Bless ‘em All
Bless ‘Em All, Bless ‘Em All, the long and the short and the tall
Bless all the sergeants and W. O. ones,
Bless all the corporals and their blinkin’ sons,
Cos were saying goodbye to them all,
as back to their billets they crawl
You’ll get no promotion this side of the ocean
So cheer up my lads, Bless ‘em All

Now they say that the Sergeant’s a very nice chap, oh what a tale to tell.
Ask him for leave on a Saturday night and he’ll pay your fare home as well.
There’s many an airman has blighted his life through writing rude words on the wall
You’ll get no promotion this side of the ocean
So cheer up my lads, Bless ‘em All

Bless ‘Em All, Bless ‘Em All, the long and the short and the tall
Bless all the sergeants and W. O. ones,
Bless all the corporals and their blinkin’ sons,
Cos were saying goodbye to them all, as back to their billets they crawl
You’ll get no promotion this side of the ocean
So cheer up my lads, Bless ‘Em All
Nobody knows what a twerp you have been
So cheer up my lads, bless ’em All!
