Oh, a wonder it was to see them run!

A wonderful thing to see—

And the Yankees sailed up without shooting a gun,

And captured their great citee, tee, tee,

And captured their great citee.

Lord Lovell kept running all day and all night,

Lord Lovell a-running kept he,

For he swore that he couldn’t abide the sight

Of the gun of a live Yankee, kee, kee,

Of the gun of a live Yankee.
