'Twere getting dusk one winter's night	A
When up the clough there came in sight	A
A lad who carried through the snow	B
A banner with this 'ere motto	B
'Uppards'	C
	-
His face was glum as he did pass	C
His eyes were shiny just like glass	C
And as he went upon his way	D
He nobbut this 'ere word did say	D
'Uppards'	D
	-
And people sitting down to tea	E
They heard him plan as plain can be	E
They thowt 'twere final football score	F
As this 'ere word rang out once more	F
'Uppards'	D
	-
A policeman on his lonely beat	G
He stopped the lad up t' end of t' street	G
He said Where't going wi' that theer	F
The lad just whispered in his ear	F
'Uppards'	D
	-
Don't go down t' clough the policeman said	H
It's mucky road for thee to tread	H
Canal's at bottom deep and wide	I
That's not my road the lad replied	I
It's 'Uppards'	D
	-
A young lass stopped him further up	J
She said Come in wi' me and sup	J
He said I'm takin none o' yon	K
Besides I must be getting on	K
'Uppards'	D
	-
Next day some lads had just begun	L
To tak' their whippets for a run	L
When dogs got scratching in the snow	B
And found flag with this 'ere motto	B
'Uppards'	D
	-
That set them digging all around	M
And 'twasn't long before they found	M
A lad whose name they never learned	N
Whose face was white whose toes had turned	N
'Uppards'	D
	-
'Twas very plain for to behold	O
The lad had ta'en his death o' cold	O
He'd got his feet wet early on	K
And from his feet the cold had gone	P
'Uppards'	D
	-
This story only goes to show	B
That when the fields is white wi' snow	B
It's inadvisable to go	B
'Uppards'	D

EXCELSIOR	F
by	-
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow	B
	-
	-
	-
The shades of night were falling fast	Q
As through an Alpine village passed	Q
A youth who bore 'mid snow and ice	D
A banner with the strange device	D
Excelsior	F
	-
His brow was sad his eye beneath	R
Flashed like a faulchion from its sheath	R
And like a silver clarion rung	S
The accents of that unknown tongue	S
Excelsior	F
	-
In happy homes he saw the light	A
Of household fires gleam warm and bright	A
Above the spectral glaciers shone	T
And from his lips escaped a groan	T
Excelsior	F
	-
Try not the Pass the old man said	H
Dark lowers the tempest overhead	H
The roaring torrent is deep and wide	I
And loud that clarion voice replied	I
Excelsior	F
	-
O stay the maiden said and rest	U
Thy weary head upon this breast	U
A tear stood in his bright blue eye	-
But still he answered with a sigh	-
Excelsior	F
	-
Beware the pine tree's withered branch	V
Beware the awful avalanche	V
This was the peasant's last Good night	A
A voice replied far up the height	A
Excelsior	F
	-
At break of day as heavenward	A
The pious monks of Saint Bernard	A
Uttered the oft repeated prayer	F
A voice cried through the startled air	F
Excelsior	F
	-
A traveller by the faithful hound	A
Half buried in the snow was found	A
Still grasping in his hand of ice	D
That banner with the strange device	D
Excelsior	F
	-
There in the twilight cold and gray	F
Lifeless but beautiful he lay	F
And from the sky serene and far	F
A voice fell like a falling star	F
Excelsior	F
