Oh a drop of Nelson’s blood wouldn’t do us any harm,
No, a drop of Nelson’s blood wouldn’t do us any harm,
No, a drop of Nelson’s blood wouldn’t do us any harm,
And we’ll all hang on behind

And we’ll roll the old chariot along
We’ll roll the old chariot along
We’ll roll the old chariot along
And we’ll all hang on behind

Oh a little mug of beer wouldn’t do us any harm

Oh a little slug of rum wouldn’t do us any harm

Well a night upon the shore wouldn’t do us any harm

Oh a drop of Nelson’s blood wouldn’t do us any harm

Chorus x 2

[Last chorus] And we’ll roll the old chariot along
We’ll roll the old chariot along
We’ll roll the old chariot along
And we’ll all hang on behind
And we’ll all hang on behind
And we’ll all hang on behind
