I love my Canned Bill, I never knew
How good that stuff could taste in stew;
I love it hot, I love it cold,

You walk into the kitchen
When you're thru a hard morning’s drill,
And you get your old mess kit
Filled up with old corn “Bill.”
It drives away your troubles,
And tho’ you're far across the sea,
It’s the thing that licked the Kaiser
In our fight for Liberty.
Tho’ they call it our iron rations
And we carry it for miles,
It’s always with you when you're hungry
And fills your face with smiles.
It has been through many a battle,
And on top it would always be,
And I don’t see whatever keeps them
From giving Bill—a D. S. C.
