STOP THE CAVALRY - JONA LEWIE. A new rendered version of this classic Christmas hit.

Re-rendered optimised video with stereo sound. The original analogue sound recording has been removed and replaced with a digitally enhanced copy.

Hey, Mr. Churchill comes over here
to say we're doing splendidly
But it's very cold out here in the snow,
marching to and from the enemy
Oh I say it's tough,I have had enough
Can you stop the cavalry?

I have had to fight, almost every night
down throughout these centuries
That is when I say, oh yes yet again
Can you stop the cavalry?
Mary Bradley waits at home
in the nuclear fall-out zone
Wish I could be dancing now
in the arms of the girl I love

(Chorus)
Dub a dub a dum dum (etc)
Wish I was at home for Christmas

Bang goes another bomb on another town
While Luzar and Jim have tea (see below)
If I get home, live to tell the tale
I'll run for all presidencies
If I get elected I'll stop - I
will stop the cavalry

(Chorus)

Wish I could be dancing now
in the arms of the girl I love
Mary Bradley waits at home
She has been waiting 2 years long
Wish I was at home for Christmas


Contention:
'While Luzar and Jim have tea'
sometimes interpretted as
'While the Czar and Jim have tea'

    "I have had to fight, almost every night, down throughout these centuries."

    This song is about war in general. It's not limited to one era. For example, I think you'll find WWI didn't have much to do with nuclear fallout.
