Navigators Warlike Lads
When Napoleon Bonaparte to Moscow he went,
with all his troops and all his men his mind was heavy
bent.
To take the Russian country now they were full
employed,
but the Russians fought against them and they soon did
them destroy.
T'was in a little while that the Russians did attack,
against Bonaparte and all his men they fought them and
they drove them back.
The action being so hot left and right and front and
rear,
oh damn you all says Bonaparte I'll stay no longer
here.
Chorus:
Those warlike lads of Russia they fought all in one
mind,
made Bonaparte to run and leave his troops behind.
Those warlike lads of Russia they fought all in one
mind,
made Bonaparte to run and leave his troops behind.
Away then went poor Bonaparte as fast as he could run.
The poor Frenchmen looked after him he left horses,
cannon, guns.
His boxes and his matches, amunition wagons too,
he left them all behind him well what could poor Boney
do?
Away then went poor Bonaparte as fast as he could ride,
the poor Frenchmen looked after him saying oh its very
hard.
To think he'd take us all out here to leave us to our
fate,
you'd think he'd ride along with us to help up in our
state
Chorus:
Those warlike lads of Russia they fought all in one
mind,
made Bonaparte to run and leave his troops behind.
Those warlike lads of Russia they fought all in one
mind,
made Bonaparte to run and leave his troops behind.
Here's twenty thousand men that they have killed and
they have taken,
likewise ten thousand horses and two hundred bits of
cannon.
No more to Paris, Lyon or French Flanders I'll advance,
for if I do I'm sure to know they'll teach me how to
dance
And its now to conclude and to finish up this song,
the poor Frenchmen in Russia they wish they had a hold
of him.
The cruelest death they'd put him through to e're a man
befall.
Oh damn you all says Bonaparte I'm clear of you all!
Chorus:
Those warlike lads of Russia they fought all in one
mind,
made Bonaparte to run and leave his troops behind.
Those warlike lads of Russia they fought all in one
mind,
made Bonaparte to run and leave his troops behind.
