Lyrics

[Verse]
Oh we'd be all right if the wind was in our sails

Oh we'd be all right if the wind was in our sails

Oh we'd be all right if the wind was in our sails

And we'll all hang on behind

[Chorus]

And we'll roll the old chariot along

We'll roll the old chariot along

We'll roll the old chariot along
And we'll all hang on behind

[Verse]

Oh we'd be all right if we make it 'round the horn

Oh we'd be all right if we make it 'round the horn

Oh we'd be all right if we make it 'round the horn

And we'll all hang on behind

[Chorus]

And we'll roll the old chariot along

We'll roll the old chariot along

We'll roll the old chariot along

And we'll all hang on behind

[Verse]

Well a drop of Nelson

's blood wouldn't do us any harm

Well a drop of Nelson's blood wouldn't do us any harm

Well a drop of Nelson's blood wouldn't do us any harm

And we'll all hang on behind

[Chorus]

And we'll roll the old chariot along

We'll roll the old chariot along

We'll roll the old chariot along

And we'll all hang on behind

[Verse]

Well a night on the town wouldn't do us any harm

Well a night on the town wouldn't do us any harm

Oh a night on the town wouldn't do us any harm

And we'll all hang on behind

[Chorus]

And we'll roll the old chariot along

We'll roll the old chariot along

We'll roll the old chariot along

And we'll all hang on behind
