Boney (with Napoleon in Russia 1)

by Maddy Prior

Lyrics
Boney was a warrior
Wey, hey, ah
A warrior, a terrier
John François

He planned a distant enterprise
Wey, hey, ah
A great and distant enterprise
John François

He is off to fight the Russian bear
Wey, hey, ah
He plans to drive him from his lair
John François

They left with banners all ablaze

Wey, hey, ah
The heads of Europe stood amazed
John François

He thinks he'll beat the Russkies
Wey, hey, ah
And the Bonny Bunch of Roses.
John François

Boney was a warrior
Wey, hey, ah
A warrior, a terrier
John François
