British Grenadiers - The United States Army Strings
Lyrics by:Anonymous
Composed by:Sidney Lippman
Some talk of Alexander and some of Hercules
Of Hector and Lysander and such great names as these
But of all the world's great heroes
There's none that can compare
With a tow row row row row row row
To the British Grenadiers
When e'er we are commanded to storm the palisades
Our leaders march with fuses and we with hand grenades
We throw them from the glacis about the enemies' ears
With a tow row row row row row row
To the British Grenadiers
Then let us fill a bumper and drink a health to those
Who carry caps and pouches and wear the louped clothes
May they and their commanders live happy all their years
With a tow row row row row row row
To the British Grenadiers
