GUEST,John Foxen | Tune Req: with wellington we'll go (13) | RE: Tune Req: with wellington we'll go | 13 Nov 13 |
Roy Palmer in his splendid The Rambling Soldier gives an earlier version of the song "Written on the late famous victory obtained over the French Army under the command of Lord Wellington on the 22 and 23 of July 1812." The tune is the Brags of Washington -- near enough Nutting Girl -- and the chorus is "With Wellington we'll go, with Wellington we'll go, Across the main o'er to Spain and fight our daring foe." |
