THE DRUM MAJOR

Ruth McEnery Stuart

A jolly little major of the drum, Behind him all the shadow people come, As he bravely leads the way For the Gobolink array

With a bearing most important, and his uniform so gay; Oh, it's very plain to see that he's the hero of the day, This jolly little major of the drum.
