Yes he wrote several songs the one that springs to mind id 'The Grand Old Dame Britannia'...a first world war anti recruiting song.

Will you come and join the Irish Guards,
Says the grand old dame Britannia

and there's more.....have you heard it before. I'm just trying out your instructions ...

Slan.......Frank
