Wartime Medley
Pack Up Your Troubles In Your Old Kit Bag
words by George Asaf, music by Felix Powell
Keep The Home Fires Burning
words by Lena Guilbert Ford, music by Ivor Novello
Arranged by Glyn Lehmann

(SA)
Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And smile, smile, smile
While you’ve a lucifer* to light your fag**
Smile boys that’s your style

What’s the use in worrying?
It never was worthwhile
So pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And smile, smile, smile

(SA)
Keep the home fires burning
While your hearts are yearning
Though your lads are far away
They dream of home

There’s a silver lining
Through the dark clouds shining
Turn the dark clouds inside out
Till the boys come (S) home

(A)
Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And smile, smile, smile

(S)
Keep the home fires burning
While your hearts are yearning
Though your lads are far away
They dream of home

(A)
We dream of home
What’s the use in worrying?
It never was worthwhile
So pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And smile, smile, smile

(S)
Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And smile

(S)
There’s a silver lining
Through the dark clouds shining
Turn the dark clouds inside out
Till the boys come home
(A)
What’s the use in worrying?
It never was worthwhile
So turn the dark clouds inside out
Till we come home

(S)
Keep the home fires burning
(A)
We come home
