It is only 'bout a week that 'e 'as been aleadin' me.

(That's the way 'e serves 'Er Majesty the Queen!)

'E is such a little chappie,

Bein' only five foot 'igh,

That you'd wonder how 'is likes could serve the Queen;

You would think that when 'e 'eard the guns

'E'd just set down an' cry—

A-forgettin' ev'rythink about the Queen;

But by all that's good an' holy, you'd be extraord'ny wrong,

'Cos 'e doesn't like no singin' 'arf as good 's the Gatlin's song,
