[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C G D
As I was walkin' down the road, 'twas on one summer's day
G C G
What d'you suppose I chanced to see, goin' the other way?
C G D
Well I knew it weren't the Navy nor the whole McDougal clan
G C G
'Twas a company of cowards, I could tell by the way they ran
[Chorus]
C
Oh get around oh get around get around
G D
Oh get around get away
G C
'Tis a company of cowards
G
And they've come to save the day
[Verse 2]
C G D
You should've seen their uniforms, shabby as you please
G C G D G
Mighty shy of buttons, rather baggy at the knees
C G D
And such was their appearance, we laughed until we cried
G C G
It's a pity, Mr. Lincoln, they're not on the other side
[Chorus]
C
Oh get around oh get around get around
G D
Oh get around get away
G C
'Tis a company of cowards
G
And they've come to save the day
[Verse 3]
C G D
I don't recall I ever heard that bugle sound retreat
G C G
I could only hear the thunder of a hundred scamperin' feet
C G D
It was forward into battle they came marching one by one
G C G
But I guess they thought it over, and they thought it best to run
[Chorus}
C
Oh get around oh get around get around
G D
Oh get around get away
G C
'Tis a company of cowards
G
And they've come to save the day
[Verse 4]

All men who bear the saber share the scandal of that day

Napoleon would have died of shame to see them run away

Remember George at Valley Forge made the British boys behave

You can well imagine now he's rolling over in his grave
