You limpin’ lump o’ brick-dust, Gunga Din! ‘Hi! Slippy hitherao. Water, get it! Panee lao, ‘You squidgy-nosed old idol, Gunga Di. The uniform ’e wore. Din! ‘You ’eathen, where the mischief ’ave you been? ‘You put some juldee in it. ‘Or I’ll marrow you this minute. If you don’t fill up my helmet, Gunga Din!’ ’E would dot an’ carry one. Till the longest day was done

Libertines frontman Pete Doherty told NME about the song: "Gunga Gin is a true Libertines amalgamation, in the proper old-fashioned sense of the word. There is a lot in there – there's a Peter Wolf lyric in there, which you'll probably pick out: 'Woke up again, to my chagrin'. We're not really pessimistic on that level, that's pure Peter Wolf pessimism. The faithful Indian water carrier has been the inspiration for a number of other songs including Jim Croce's 1966 adaptation titled "Gunga Di. Kipling's line, "You're a better man, than I am Gunga Din" has been referenced in several tunes including Bobby Darin's "That's the Way Love Is," The Yardbirds' "You're a Better Man Than I" and Aerosmith's "Livin' On The Edge.
