HIGH WOOD TO WATERLOT FARM
Tune—‘‘Chalk Farm to Camberwell Green”
THERE is a wood at the top of a hill,If it’s not shifted it’s standing there still;There is a farm a short distance away,But I’d not advise you to go there by day,For the snipers abound, and the shells are not rare,And a man’s only chance is to run like a hare,So take my advice if you’re chancing your armFrom High Wood to Waterlot Farm.
Chorus—High Wood to Waterlot Farm,Chorus—All on a summer’s day,Chorus—Up you get to the top of the trenchChorus—Though you’re sniped at all the way.Chorus—If you’ve got a smoke helmet thereChorus—You’d best put it on if you could,Chorus—For the wood down by Waterlot FarmChorus—Is a bloody high wood.
