Version 1 of the lyrics

  She'd given everything she could give  She'd given everything she could give
  Twenty years of kindness made her sad  Twenty years of kindness made her sad
  Kindness never made enough to live  Kindness never made enough to live
  So she sold the very last thing that she had  So she sold the very last thing that she had
      
1  As she held her hand out to him as he drove around the block   As she held her hand out to him                                    1
2  He mouthed through         the window just hold on   As he drove around the block                 2
3  I've held on many years now and I haven't found a lot   He mouthed through the window 'just hold on'                         3
1  'I've held on many years now and1
2  I haven't found a lot'2

  Many years of service with a smile  Many years of service with a smile
  Up shit creek and down the Rhine  Up shit creek and down the Rhine
  Gibraltar Rock and now the Emerald Isle  Gibraltar Rock and now the Emerald Isle
  He'd shined every shoe that he could shine  He'd shined every shoe that he could shine
      
11  And as he lay in his own blood screaming I've been shot   And as he lay in his own blood                              11
12  He heard the Major whisper just hold on   Screaming 'I ve been shot'                 12
