No, I can't find any reference - unless anyone knows where it is to be found, I may have to dig out the tape of Barry Dransfield in concert (c1973) and transcribe. I think he said he got it from his father.

The chorus goes

I'm Major General Worthington, Worthington, Worthington,
You can see all the medals that I have not won
I have not one
I have not one
And when I came home from Africay
In the month of May
The Queen did say
Will you have a VC
I said not me
I'd rather have a bottle of Worthington

I presume it was music hall era.
