Cast Iron's Crusade

lyrics

Riding through the sunset
searching for real ale
The journey was a long
one the boys were weak and frail
Passing by the stragglers
who couldn’t take the pace
A grin was breaking out
on the iron man’s mean face

Come on everybody let’s drink along
With Cast Iron’s brigade
Drink it quick and drink it strong
Cast Iron’s crusade

A barrel with a handle
still wouldn’t hold enough
The iron man was keeling
yeah feeling pretty rough
We stopped off at a country inn
to rest our tired legs
But only seconds later
we rode off with the kegs

The world was spinning fast now
the boys could take no more
There’s Nobby like a beached
whale flat out on the floor
No crane was made to lift him
so there he had to stay
The crusade it had ended
for just another day
