| - | |
| Here in my cosy corner | B |
| Before a blazing log | C |
| I m thinking of cold London | D |
| Wrapped in its killing fog | E |
| And like a shining beacon | D |
| Above the picture grim | F |
| I see the London Bobby | G |
| And sing my song for him | F |
| - | |
| I see his stalwart figure | B |
| I see his kindly face | H |
| I hear his helpful answer | B |
| At any hour or place | H |
| For though you seek some by way | I |
| Long miles from his own beat | J |
| He tells you all about it | K |
| And how to find the street | J |
| - | |
| He looks like some bold Viking | L |
| This king of earth s police | M |
| Yet in his voice lies feeling | L |
| And in his eyes lies peace | M |
| He knows and does his duty | G |
| What higher praise is there | N |
| And London s lords and paupers | O |
| Alike receive his care | N |
| - | |
| He has a regal bearing | L |
| Yet one that breathes repose | P |
| It is the look and manner | B |
| Of one who thinks and knows | P |
| Oh men who govern nations | Q |
| In old worlds or new | R |
| Turn to the London Bobby | G |
| And learn a thing or two | R |
