SONG: Stop The Cavalry
ARTIST: Jona Lewie
YEAR: 1980

Since Christmas is coming...

Intro: A E (x2)
A                  E
Hey, Mr. Churchill comes over here
A                  E
To say we're doing splendidly
A                  E
But it's very cold out here in the snow
A                        E
Marching to win from the enemy
A                     E
Oh, I say it's tough, I have had enough
A                E    A
Can you stop the Cavalry?

A                    E
I have had to fight, almost every night
A                     E
Down throughout these centuries
A                   E
That is when I say, oh yes, yet again
A                E    A
Can you stop the Cavalry?

E            A
Mary Bradley waits at home
E              A
In the nuclear fall-out zone
E               A
Wish I could be dancing now
E                  A
In the arms of the girl I love

E
Dub a dub a dum dum

A                         E
Bang, that's another bomb on another town
A               E
While Luzar and Jim have tea
A              E
If I get home, live to tell the tale
A                E
I'll run for all presidencies
A                E          A               E    A
If I get elected I'll stop- I will stop the Cavalry
