《Old Sam’s Christmas Pudding》歌词

[00:00:01] Old Sam's Christmas Pudding - Stanley Holloway
[00:00:10] It was Christmas Day in the trenches
[00:00:13] In Spain in Penninsular War
[00:00:16] And Sam Small were cleaning his musket
[00:00:20] A thing as he'd nere done before
[00:00:23] They'd had'em inspected that morning
[00:00:26] And Sam had got into disgrace
[00:00:29] For when sergeant had looked down the barrel
[00:00:32] A sparrow flew out in his face
[00:00:35] The sergeant reported the matter
[00:00:38] To Lieutenant Bird then and there
[00:00:41] Said Lieutenant How very disgusting
[00:00:45] The Duke must be told of this ere
[00:00:49] The Duke were upset when he heard
[00:00:52] He said I'm astonished I am
[00:00:56] I must make a most drastic example
[00:00:59] There'll be no Christmas pudding for Sam
[00:01:03] When Sam were informed of his sentence
[00:01:07] Surprise rooted him to the spot
[00:01:11] Twas much worse than he had expected
[00:01:14] He thought as he'd only be shot
[00:01:17] And so he sat cleaning his musket
[00:01:21] And polishing barrel and butt
[00:01:24] While the pudding his mother had sent him
[00:01:28] Lay there in the mud at his foot
[00:01:31] Now the centre that Sam's lot were holding
[00:01:35] Ran around a place called Badajoz
[00:01:39] Where the Spaniards had put up a bastion
[00:01:43] And ooh what a bastion it was
[00:01:46] They pounded away all the morning
[00:01:49] With canister grape shot and ball
[00:01:52] But the face of the bastion defied them
[00:01:56] They made no impression at all
[00:01:59] They started again after dinner
[00:02:01] Bombarding as hard as they could
[00:02:04] And the Duke brought his own private cannon
[00:02:09] But that weren't a ha'pence o good
[00:02:12] The Duke said Sam put down thy musket
[00:02:16] And help me lay this gun true
[00:02:19] Sam answered You'd best ask your favours
[00:02:23] From them as you give pudding to
[00:02:26] The Duke looked at Sam so reproachful
[00:02:31] And don't take it that way said he
[00:02:35] Us Generals have got to be ruthless
[00:02:38] It hurts me more than it did thee
[00:02:42] Sam sniffed at these words kind of sceptic
[00:02:47] Then looked down the Duke's private gun
[00:02:50] And said We'd best put in two charges
[00:02:54] We'll never bust bastion with one
[00:02:58] He tipped cannon ball out of muzzle
[00:03:00] He took out the wadding and all
[00:03:03] He filled barrel chock full of powder
[00:03:06] Then picked up and replaced the ball
[00:03:09] He took a good aim at the bastion
[00:03:12] Then said Right o Duke let her fly
[00:03:16] The cannon nigh jumped off her trunnions
[00:03:20] And up went the bastion sky high
[00:03:26] The Duke he weren't alf elated
[00:03:30] He danced around trench full of glee
[00:03:33] And said Sam for this gallant action
[00:03:37] You can hot up your pudding for tea
[00:03:40] Sam looked round to pick up his pudding
[00:03:44] But it wasn't there nowhere about
[00:03:48] In the place where he thought he had left it
[00:03:51] Lay the cannon ball he'd just tipped out
[00:03:55] Sam saw in a flash what ad happened
[00:03:59] By an unprecedented mishap
[00:04:03] The pudding his mother had sent him
[00:04:06] Had blown Badajoz off map
[00:04:09] That's why fuisilliers wear to this moment
[00:04:14] A badge which they think's a grenade
[00:04:17] But they're wrong it's a brass reproduction
[00:04:21] Of the pudding Sam's mother once made
