Cannon Song (live) - Litfiba

John was present jim was there

Georgie was up for promotion

Not that the army gave a bugger who they were

When confronting some heathen commotion

The troops live under

The cannon's thunder

From send to coach behair

Face to face

Moving from place to place

With a different breed of fellow

Whose skins are black or yellow

They quick as winking chop them into

Beefsteak tartar

Johnny found a keyna to warming

Jimmy found the weather too balmy

But Georgie took them both by the arm

And said never disappoint the army

The troops live under

The cannon's thunder

From send to coach behair

When they come face to face

Moving from place to place

With a different breed of fellow

Whose skins are black or yellow

They quick as winking chop plan into

Beefsteak tartar

John is a writeoff and jimmy is dead

And Georgie was shot for looting

Young men's blood goes on being red

On being red

On being red

On being red

But the army

The army

The army

Still goes on ahead

Ahead

Recruiting

Aah

The troops live under

The cannon's thunder

From send to

Coach behair

When they come face to face

Moving from place to place

With a different breed of fellow

Whose skins are black

Or yellow

They quick as winking chop that

Into beefsteak tartar

Alright
