[INTRO]
Eight thousand miles across the sea
He led his troops onward to victory
‘H' was his name to all his men
Now they will never see his likes again
And as he led that final charge
He was struck down so very very hard
And as a hero he did fall
An inspiration to us one and all
He was a man cast in the mold
Of Saxon kings and knights of long ago
For when the challenge came his way
He did not shirk to lead that last foray
He lies there buried with his men
Between Goose Green and nearby Darwin
No greater love can ever be
He gave his life to set the kelpers free
[OUTRO]
But he will live forevermore
Wherever man tell tales of war
He’ll permeate their flesh and bones
Whenever they talk about Colonel Herbert Jones
