As ever you’d wish to see!

Lord Lovell the town had sworn to defend,

A-waving his sword on high;

He swore that the last ounce of powder he’d spend,

And in the last ditch he would die, die, die,

And in the last ditch he would die.

He swore by black and he swore by blue,

He swore by the stars and bars,

That never he’d fly from a Yankee crew

While he was a son of Mars, Mars, Mars,
