Chris Watson of the ParliamentA
By his Caucus Gods he sworeB
That the great Labor PartyC
Should suffer wrong no moreB
By his Caucus Gods he swore itD
And named a trysting dayE
And bade his Socialists ride forthF
East and west and south and northF
To summon his arrayE
East and west and south and northF
The Socialists ride fastG
And every town in New South WalesH
Has heard their trumpet's blastG
Shame to the false electorE
Who lingers in his holeI
While Watson and his myrmidonsJ
Are riding to the pollI
-
Then up spake brave Horatius GouldK
And a Liberal proud was heC
Now who will stand on either handL
And face the foe with meC
Then out spake bold Herminius MillenM
And Walker out spake heC
We will abide on either sideN
And win a seat with theeC
-
'Tis well quoth brave HoratuisJ
As thou sayest so let it beC
And straight against the proletaireE
Forth went the dauntless threeE
