We are the galloping 23rd

Hi
Does anyone have the full lyrics to the above song that used to be sung on many occasions in the RWF if anyone has these can you PM them to me
Many thanks
BennytheBall

You told me not to sing it in that bar in Lille :biglaugh:

We are the galloping twenty third
we’ll fight the enemy by and by
every man in the Regiment
is willing to do or die
we are the galloping twenty third
second to the Navy on the sea
if it wasn’t for the galloping twenty third boys
where the hell would the Army be

I’ll tell you
miles behind the line, shovelling coal
miles behind the line shovelling coal

Now our sergeant major he never fired a gun
he won the DCM for the things he never done
but when the boys came over the hill
you should see the *******s run
the other way boys the other way

miles behind etc etc

Now we went to Cyprus to see what they were doing
when we got there the .....place was ruined
Now I haven’t seen old hitler for a hell of a time etc etc

“I’m sure someone can fill in more verses Benny”.
