Full Text

Sing a song of Thrift Stamps
Sixteen in a row
Take them to an agent
Add fourteen cents or so
Change them for a War Stamp
And for your loyalty
You'll get a crisp $5 bill
in 1923.

I saw a ship a-sailing
A-sailing on the sea
'Twas full of ammunition
For fighting Germany
And oh, but I was happy
That I had done my share
Through purchasing War Savings
To send it "over there," Stamps
