Sorry, darlion'...I didn't know there was an issue in play!

Oh, and I left out half the verse!! Shame on me!!

Oh, Lord Jeffrey Amherst was a soldier of the King
And he came from across the sea!
For the Frenchies and the Indians he didn't give a thing
In the wilds of this wild countree!
In the wilds of this wild countree!
And for his Royal Majesty he fought with all his might,
He was a soldier, loyal and true.
And he conquered all the enemy that came within his sight,
And he looked around for more when he was through!

Oh Amherst! Brave Amherst!
Twas a name known to fame in days of yore!
May she ever, ever be glorious
'Til the sun shall climb the heavens no more!
