You've heard of General Wellington
Who won at Waterloo,
But
there's a good old Irishman
I'll introduce to you
He comes from dear old Dublin
He's
a man we all applaud
For he always finds a corkscrew
Far more hardy than a
sword.
He's good old General Guinness
He's a soldier strong and stout
Found on every
battlefront
He can't be done without
His noble name has worldwide fame
Preserved
through hearty cheers
Hurrah for General Guinness
And the Dublin
Boozileers!
This hale and hearty warrior
Is worshipped in the ranks,
For he
does his task inside a cask
As well as in the tanks.
He's borne the brunt on every
front,
North, South, East and West,
And he wears about ten thousand canteen
Medals on
his chest.
He's good old General Guinness.
He's won the world's applause.
It was he
who kept our spirits up
In the midst of all the wars.
Who was the first to flirt
with
Mademoiselle from Armentiers?
Why good old General Guinness
Of the Dublin
Boozileers.
All over bonny Scotland, too,
The General is seen.
They've given
him the freedom
Of the town of Aberdeen.
From Inverness to Galloshiles,
They keep him
warm at night
And they love to gather round him,
Auuuch! On every moonlit
night.
He's good old General Guinness
He's as good as Scottish broth.
He's the one
who turned the Firth of Forth
Into the Firth of Froth
All Scotsmen dance the highland
fling
And shout when he appears
Hurrah for General Guinness
And the Dublin
Boozileers!
