[Verse:] Did you hear of the razor brigade? Of the big reputation they've made? Ever since they came to France They've been used in ev'ry advance They are noted for capturing Huns And they never go in with their guns When the Captain takes his stand He gives them this command: [Refrain:] Take your trusty razor by the hand Lead him gently into No-Man's Land Keep a-dancing while advancing And the first Hun that you meet Hold up your razors And cut off his retreat They'll surrender when they see your blade Razors make those German lads afraid And when you bring your pris'ners back You can make them ball the jack And the world will say hip-hip-hooray For the Ragtime Razor Brigade
