Strategies Well Planned

A hero of the Boer war
His strategies well planned
He served in India
And in the Sudan

Young Herbert went to Eton
With holidays in Torquay
Cricket in the summer season
There by the sea
Young Herbert went to Eton
With holidays in Torquay

A general of the Great War
His strategies well planned
He served in the Flanders mud
Second army his command

He came back to Torquay
From the Great War
Honoured with a ceremony
In the town hall
Yes he came back from Torquay
From the Great War

They gathered in the town hall
To honour his return
The freedom of the borough
He was given and he had earned

A general of the Great War
His strategies well planned
He served in the Flanders mud
Second army his command
A general of the Great War
His strategies well planned

Commander of the army
That occupied the Rhine
After the armistice
That had been signed
After the armistice
That had been signed
