| 'The Man of the Nation' | A |

| YONDER the band is playing | B |
| And the fine Young People walk | C |
| They are envying each other and talking | B |
| Their pretty empty talk | C |
| There in the shade on the outskirts | D |
| Stretched on the grass I see | A |
| A Man with a slouch hat smoking | B |
| That is the Man for me | A |
| That is the Man of the Nation | A |
| He works and much endures | E |
| When all the rest is rotten | A |
| He rises and cuts and cures | E |
| He's the soldier of the Crimea | F |
| Fighting to honour fools | G |
| He's the grappler and strangler of Lee | A |
| Lord of the terrible tools | G |
| He's in all the conquered nations | H |
| That have won their own at last | I |
| And in all that yet shall win it | J |
| And the World by him goes past | I |
| O strong sly World this nameless | K |
| Still much enduring Man | A |
| Is the Hand of God that shall clutch you | L |
| For all you have done or can | A |
