GALLANT CAMBRIDGE

         Jumping Over

      PRINCE ALBERT.

Come arouse up Britannia and   
banish all grief,
Gallant Cambridge is made the
Commander-in-chief,
For he's a soldier all over, good in
his idea
And he fought like a briton when
in the Crimea.                           
He is commander in chief and a
soldier so gay,
Heres the braveDuke ofCambridge
for ever bus a                           
He jumped over Albert got in the
right place,
With his sword and his knapsack
and right about face,
Bonny Albert could ne'er his own   
business mind
And that the reason he did get
behind
Neither was he cut out it is John
Bulls belief,
I mean Prince Albert to be
Commander in Chief.
At shooting Prince Albert nas
no idea,
ButGambridge went boldly out to
the Crimea,
When he fought on the heights &
commanded the line,
And he knocked down the Russian
thirteen at a time.
Oh crikey good gracious on last Mon-
day night
Bonny Albert lay down kicked and
cried to his wife
He trembled and shook like a stale
cabbage leaf
Saying I was made a Commander-in-
chief
Albert bawled stand at ease and he
danced round the room
He knocked down the sancepan and
shouldered the broom
He pipe-clayed his breeches and grant
no reliel
To fight for the place of Commande-in
chief
For Commander in Chief the
brave Duke is the man,
The duties of soldiering he does
understand,
And whenever he is wanted he is
ready to go.
To fight for his country and tickle
the foe.
With politics Cambridge has
nothing to do,
The brave british ssldier he likes
to review,
But Albert could politics not leave
alone,
Minded others affairs and neglect-
ed his own.
Albert may go to Aldershot now if he
can
So the German Leigon he there may
command
In peace or in war in vexation or peace
He will never be the commander-in
chief
Heres the true british soldier so
gallant and gay
Heres the braveDuke ofCambridge
for ever hnssa,
In a bumper we'll sing and we'll
banish all grief
With a health tooar commander
in chief,
