Boots is a comical poem by Kipling about the monotony of life for a soldier during the Second Boer War. Here it has been set to music in a march feel. Included are a variations on the melody and bugle calls which help tell the musical story. Here it is arranged for woodwind trio, flute, oboe and bassoon. We're foot—slog—slog—slog—sloggin' over Africa—Foot—foot—foot—foot—sloggin' over Africa -- (Boots—boots—boots—boots—movin' up and down again!) There's no discharge in the war!
