You may talk o’ gin and beer
When you’re quartered safe out ’ere,
An’ you’re sent to penny-fights an’ Aldershot it;
But when it comes to slaughter
You will do your work on water,
An’ you’ll lick the bloomin’ boots of JD Notae

I wish I were that literate…have never gotten into poetry sadly
You’re a better man than I am, pavlovhog, er… Gunga Din.
I watch the movie based on the poem, with Carey Grant, Douglas Fairbanks Jr., and the wonderful Victor McLaglen, every time it’s on TMC.
For it’s Tommy this and Tommy that
And Tommy how’s your soul
But it’s a thin red line of heroes
When the drums begin to roll…
Who knew that ole Rudyard was a basketball fan? Good stuff pavlov!
