| Lyrics: | HARD CHEESE OF OLD ENGLAND
There's Cheddar and Cheshire and Lancashire
too,
Leicester's bright orange and Stilton is blue.
It waxes so lyrical, what can you do
but sing,
Oh the hard cheese of old England,
In old England very hard
cheese.
Derby got green bits because of the sage,
And when it gets older its kept in
a cage.
What does it hum when it reaches this age but,
They say double Gloucester is
twicest as nice,
They say double Gloucester there, I've said it twice,
Its nice in
potatoes but nicest in mice.
Those damn foreigners aren't worth a mention,
Old
Gorgonzolas is renowned for it stenchen,
His brother Emil wrote novels in French and
sing,
There's Swaledale and Wendslydale, Rutland to add,
Shropshire and Cornish you
may not have had,
It's not bad on salads this ballad's not sad and sing,
My young
love said to me my mother won't mind,
And my father once liked you for your lack of
rind,
No cheese greater love for his food than mankind.
A Traditional English Food
