    1. When Napoleon Bonaparte
           D  A      D
       to Moscow he went
            G                  D
       with all his troops and all his men
              G                A
       their minds were fully bent
           D                G    A
       to take the Russian country
             D       A     D
       they were fully employed
                G                D
       but the Russians fought against them
                 F         G       C
       and they soon did them destroy.

    2. Well in a little while
       the Russians did attack
       'gainst Bonaparte and all his men
       they fought them and they drove them back
       the action being so hot
       right and left and front and rear
       a damn you all says Bonaparte
       I'll stay no longer here.

    R: Those war like lads of Russia they fought all in one mind
             G            D                  G       A
       made Bonaparte to run and leave his troops behind
              D                G    A
       those war like lads of Russia they fought all in one mind
             G            D                  A       D
       made Bonaparte to run and leave his troops behind.

    3. Away then went poor Bonaparte
       as fast as he could run
       the poor Frenchmen looked after him
       left horses men and guns
       his boxes and his matches
       ammunition wagons too
       he left them all behind him well
       what could poor Boney do?
    R:

    4. Away then went poor Bonaparte
       as fast as he could ride
       the poor Frenchmen looked after him
       saying oh it's very hard
       to think he'd lead us all up here
       and leave us to our fate
       you'd think he'd stop along with us
       and help us in our state.
    R:

    5. Here's eighty thousand men from 'em
       they've killed and they have taken
       likewise ten thousand horses
       and two hundred bits of cannon
       never more to Leon Paris
       or French Flanders they're advanced
       for if I do I may be sure
       they'll teach me how to dance.
    R:

    6. Now it's to conclude and thus
       to finish off me song
       old Boney's men and Russia wish
       they had a hold of him
       the cruellest death they'd put him to
       that ever a man befell
       oh damn you all says Bonaparte
       I'm clear of you all.
