Jon Heslop wrote 7th of October, with apologies to Dave Webber, who he did sing it to before he took it out.

Chorus
Hail, hail the 7th of October
The earliest date I'm likely to be sober,
We got in an awful way,
Following the 'Obby 'Oss to greet the May.


1. Winter time has gone and passed and
Most of Springtime we've been plastered,
Summers going the very same way,
I blame it on the 'Obby 'Oss and 1st of May.


2.
