Who carries the gun	A
A lad from over the Tweed	B
Then let him go for well we know	C
He comes of a soldier breed	B
So drink together to rock and heather	D
Out where the red deer run	A
And stand aside for Scotland's pride	E
The man that carries the gun	A
For the Colonel rides before	F
The Major's on the flank	G
The Captains and the Adjutant	H
Are in the foremost rank	G
But when it's 'Action front '	I
And fighting's to be done	A
Come one come all you stand or fall	J
By the man who holds the gun	A
	-
Who carries the gun	A
A lad from a Yorkshire dale	K
Then let him go for well we know	C
The heart that never will fail	K
Here's to the fire of Lancashire	L
And here's to her soldier son	A
For the hard bit north has sent him forth	M
The lad that carries the gun	A
	-
Who carries the gun	A
A lad from a Midland shire	L
Then let him go for well we know	C
He comes of an English sire	D
Here's a glass to a Midland lass	N
And each can choose the one	A
But east and west we claim the best	O
For the man that carries the gun	A
	-
Who carries the gun	A
A lad from the hills of Wales	P
Then let him go for well we know	C
That Taffy is hard as nails	P
There are several ll's in the place where he dwells	Q
And of w's more than one	A
With a 'Llan' and a 'pen ' but it breeds good men	R
And it's they who carry the gun	A
	-
Who carries the gun	A
A lad from the windy west	O
Then let him go for well we know	C
That he is one of the best	O
There's Bristol rough and Gloucester tough	S
And Devon yields to none	A
Or you may get in Somerset	T
Your lad to carry the gun	A
	-
Who carries the gun	A
A lad from London town	U
Then let him go for well we know	C
The stuff that never backs down	U
He has learned to joke at the powder smoke	V
For he is the fog smoke's son	A
And his heart is light and his pluck is right	W
The man who carries the gun	A
	-
Who carries the gun	A
A lad from the Emerald Isle	X
Then let him go for well we know	C
We've tried him many a while	X
We've tried him east we've tried him west	O
We've tried him sea and land	Y
But the man to beat old Erin's best	O
Has never yet been planned	Y
	-
Who carries the gun	A
It's you and you and you	Z
So let us go and we won't say no	C
If they give us a job to do	Z
Here we stand with a cross linked hand	Y
Comrades every one	A
So one last cup and drink it up	A2
To the man who carries the gun	A
For the Colonel rides before	F
The Major's on the flank	G
The Captains and the Adjutant	H
Are in the foremost rank	G
And when it's 'Action front '	-
And there's fighting to be done	A
Come one come all you stand or fall	J
By the man who holds the gun	A
