BOLD NELSON'S PRAISE
Collected and arranged by Cecil J. Sharp

1. Bold Nelson's praise I'm going to sing,
(Not forgetting our glorious King)
He always did good tidings bring,
For he was a bold commander.
There was Sydney Smith and Duncan too,
Lord Howe and all the glorious crew.
They were the men that were true blue,
Full of care,
Yet I swear,
None with Nelson could compare,
Not even Alexander.

2. Bonaparte he threaten'd war,
A man who fear'd not wound nor scar,
But still he lost at Trafalgar,
Where Britain was victorious.
Lord Nelson's actions made him quake,
And all French pow'rs he made to shake.
He said his king he'd ne'er forsake.
These last words
Thus he spoke:
Stand true, my lads, like hearts of oak,
And the battle shall be glorious.

3. Nelson bold, though threaten'd wide,
And many a time he had been tried,
He fought like a hero till he died
Amid the battle gory;
But the day was won; their line was broke,
While all around was lost in smoke,
And Nelson he got his death-stroke.
That's the man
For old England!
He faced his foe with his sword in hand
And he lived and he died in his glory.
