From Swadlincote I'd take my cue,

But shun as I would shun the scurvy

The perilous atmosphere of Turvey.

But though the tuneful name of Horbling

Incites to further doggerel warbling,

And Gallions, Goonbell, Gamlingay

Are each deserving of a lay,

No railway bard is worth his salt

Who cannot bear to call a "Halt."
