My Brudda Sylveste
He's my brudda Sylvest. (What's he got)
A row of 40 medals on his chest. (Big Chest)
He's killed a thousand Zulus in the west.
And he knows no rest.
Think of a man hell's fire.
Don't push just shove.
Think of you and me.
He's got an arm, like a leg.
And a punch that would sink a battleship. (big ship)
It takes all the army and the navy to put the wind up... (WHO?) Sylveste.
He thought he'd take a trip to Italy.
He thought he could go by sea.
He jumped off the harbor in New York.
And swam like a manmade Cork.
He saw the Lusitania in distress. (What'd he do?)
He put the Lusitania on his chest.
Drank all the water in the sea.
He walked all the way to Italy.
He's my brudda Sylvest. (What's he got)
A row of 40 medals on his chest. (Big Chest)
He's killed a thousand Zulus in the west.
And he knows no rest.
Think of a man hell's fire.
Don't push just shove.
Think of you and me.
He's got an arm, like a leg.
And a punch that would sink a battleship. (big ship)
It takes all the army and the navy to put the wind up... (WHO?) Sylveste.
He thought he'd take a trip to old Japan.
He brought up the whole brass band.
He played every instrument he got.
Like a man who played the whole lot.
The whole church choir did sing.
The whole church bells did ring.
They all came out to see my brudda Sylveste and me.
He's my brudda Sylvest. (What's he got)
A row of 40 medals on his chest. (Big Chest)
He's killed a thousand Zulus in the west.
And he knows no rest.
Think of a man hell's fire.
Don't push just shove.
Think of you and me.
He's got an arm, like a leg.
And a punch that would sink a battleship. (big ship)
It takes all the army and the navy to put the wind up... (WHO?) Sylveste.
He's the best!
A row of 40 medals on his chest. (Big Chest)
He's killed a thousand Zulus in the west.
And he knows no rest.
Think of a man hell's fire.
Don't push just shove.
Think of you and me.
