Oh, will you come when I call you?
I'll come when you call me
I'll call you at half-past one!
One's for the pretty little baby that's
Born, born, born and gone away
Oh, will you come when I call you?
I'll come when you call me
I'll call you at half-past two
Two's for the love of me and you
One's for the pretty little baby
That's born, born, born and gone away
Oh, will you come when I call you?
I'll come when you call me
I'll call you at half-past three
Three's for these warships at sea
Two's for the love of me and you
One's for the pretty little baby
That's born, born, born and gone away
Will you come when I call you?
I'll come when you call me
I'll call you at half-past four
Four's for the guns of this war
Three's for these warships at sea
Two's for the love of me and you
One's for the pretty little baby
That's born, born, born and gone away
Oh, will you come when I call you?
I'll come when you call me
I'll call you at half-past five
Five's for these warplanes that fly
Four's for the guns of this war
Three's for these warships at sea
Two's for the love of me and you
One's for the pretty little baby
That's born, born, born and gone away
Oh, will you come when I call you?
I'll come when you call me
I'll call you at half-past six
Six for the cities all wrecked
Five's for these warplanes that fly
Four's for the guns of this war
Three's for these warships at sea
Two's for the love of me and you
One's for the pretty little baby
That's born, born, born and gone away
Oh, will you come when I call you?
I'll come when you call me
I'll call you at half-past seven
Seven for continents blowed up
Six for the cities all wrecked
Five's for these warplanes that fly
Four's for the guns of this war
Three's for these warships at sea
Two's for the love of me an you
One's for the pretty little baby
That's born, born, born and gone away
Oh, will you come when I call you?
I'll come when you call me
I'll call you at half-past eight
Eight for my eight billion graves
Seven for continents blowed up
Six for the cities all wrecked
Five's for these warplanes that fly
Four's for the guns of this war
Three's for these warships at sea
Two's for the love of me and you
One's for the pretty little baby
That's born, born, born and gone away
Oh, will you come when I call you?
I'll come when you call me
I'll call you at half-past nine
Nine for the crippled and blind
Eight for my eight billion graves
Seven for continents blowed up
Six for the cities all wrecked
Five for these warplanes that fly
Four for the guns of this war
Three's for these warships at sea
Two's for the love of me and you
One's for the pretty little baby
That's born, born, born and gone away
Oh, will you come when I call you?
I'll come when you call me
I'll call you half-past ten
Ten for the atom bomb loose again
Nine for the crippled and blind
Eight for my eight billion graves
Seven for continents blowed up
Six for the cities all wrecked
Five's for these warplanes that fly
Four's for the guns of this war
Three's for these warships at sea
Two's for the love of me and you
One's for the pretty little baby
That's born, born, born and gone away
