young tiger - i was there (at the coronation) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well let me tell you ladies and gents
i enjoyed myself to my hearts content
i could not follow the procession
but i was there to see the coronation

[chorus]
i was there
at the coronation
i was there
at the coronation

[verse 2]
i took up my position at marble arch
from the night before just to see the march
the night wind was blowing, freezing and cold
but i held my ground like a young creole

[chorus]
i was there
at the coronation
i was there
at the coronation

[verse 3]
my stoic stance soon paid dividends
for i saw them coming around the bend
then i perceived in all her glory
the golden coach with her majesty

[chorus]
she was there
at the coronation
i was there
at the coronation

[verse 4]
her majesty looked really divine
in her crimson robe, furred with her mind
the duke of edinburgh dignified and neat
sat besides her as admiral of the fleet

[chorus]
he was there
at the coronation
i was there
at the coronation

[verse 5]
one thousand guardsmen marching ahead
physicians and surgeons all in good stead
all the lords of the admiralty
the war office and the air ministry

[chorus]
they were there
at the coronation
i was there
at the coronation

[verse 6]
navy, army, royal air force
chiefs of staff, united kingdom of course
the royal horse guard we chanced to see
escort of the household calvary

[chorus]
they were there
at the coronation
i was there
at the coronation

[verse 7]
troops from dominions and colonies
australia, new zealand, and west indies
india, ceylon, west africa
newfoundland, gibraltar, and canada

[chorus]
they were there
at the coronation
i was there
at the coronation

[verse 8]
the procession was about 50,000 strong
it stretched for much more than 6 miles long
millions of people, all happily
shouting three cheers for her majesty

[chorus]
they were there
at the coronation
i was there
at the coronation

[verse 9]
as i stood looking, rapturously
a feeling of elation came over me
i felt what pleasure, such beauty gives
i shall never forget as long as i live

[chorus]
i was there
at the coronation
we were there
at the coronation
i was there
at the coronation
millions there
at the coronation
