Grafted Into The Army - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
GRAFTED INTO THE ARMY. 
Our Jimmy has gone for to live in a tent. They have grafted him into the army; He finally puckered up courage and went, When they grafted him into the army. I told them the child was too young: alas! At the Captain's fore quarters, they say, he would pass, They train'd him up well in the infantry class-So they grafted him into the army. 
Chorus. O Jimmy, farewell! your brothers fell 'Way down in Alabarmy; I thought they would spare a lone widder's heir, But they grafted him into the army. 
Dressed up in his unicorn, dear little chap! They have grafted him into the army; It seems but a day since he sot in my lap; But they grafted him into the army: And these are the trousers he used to wear-The very same buttons-the patch and the tear-But Uncle Same gave him a bran new pair, When they grafted him into the army.-Chorus. 
Now, in my provisions I see him revealed, They have grafted him into the army; A picket beside the contented field, They have grafted him into the army. He looks kinder sickish -begins to cry, A big volunteer standing right in his eye! Oh! what if the ducky should up and die. Now they've grafted him Into the army.- Chorus.
