We are one two three jolly lads all in one line
We've come a pace egging, and I hope you prove kind
And I hope you prove kind, with your eggs and strong beer
We'll come no longer by you until the next year.
Next that comes in it is Nelson you'll see
With a bunch of blue ribbons tied down to his knee
And a star on his chest, like silver doth shine
And I hope you'll remember it's pace egging time.
The next that comes in it is jolly Jack Tar
He sailed with Lord Nelson all through the last war
He's arrived from the sea old England to view
And he's come a pace egging with our jovial crew.
Well the next that comes in it is Lord Collingwood
And he fought with Lord Nelson 'til he shed his blood
He fought with Lord Nelson through sorrow and woe
And I hope you'll reward him before you do go.
Then in comes old miser with all his brown bags
For fear of his money he wears his old rags
So see what you do and mind that all's right
If we get none we'll take note farewell and goodbye.
We're one two three jolly lads all in one line
We've come a pace egging and I hope you prove kind
And I hope you prove kind with your eggs and strong beer
We'll come no longer by you until the next year.
And I hope you prove kind with your eggs and strong beer
We'll come no longer by you until the next year.
