Temple Shirley
Poor Little Rich Girl (1936)
Military Man
Lyrics/Music Mack Gordon/Harry Revel

When I hear the blast of a bugle
I know I soon will see a military man
When I hear the sound of a drum: Rum-tummy-tum-tum
I know I soon will see a military man
I love a military man
I love a military man
I love a military nurse

My, but it's so grand to see a military man
Ev'ry boy should want to be a military man
What a treat to marching feet the roll of a drum
What a treat to marching feet is the Rum-tum...
Rummy-tum-tum-tum

In a crowd he looks so proud, a military man
In his uniform so spic and span
Hearts are filled with joy and they're thrilled with joy
Whenever a march is played
For ev'rybody loves to see
A soldier parade

------

(Additional words not in the film)
It's about to start
I hear the Rum-tum-tum, the fife and drum
And here they come
What a pretty sight to see!

Joy is in your heart
You've got to swell with pride as side by side
So dignified
Members of the infantry!

Raise your voices high
And give a rousing cheer
When they appear
They know no fear
They're as brave as can be

Manly spirits based upon
The slogan: We must carry on!
Company attention, forward march!

My, but it's so grand to see a military man
Ev'ry boy should want to be a military man
What a treat to marching feet the roll of a drum
What a treat to marching feet is the Rum-tum...
Rummy-tum-tum-tum

In a crowd he looks so proud, a military man
In his uniform so spic and span
Hearts are filled with joy and they're thrilled with joy
Whenever a march is played
For ev'rybody loves to see
A soldier parade
