The Noble Duke of York
He had ten thousand mem
He marched them up to the top of the hill
And he marched them down again

And when you’re up you’re up
And when you’re down you’re down
And when you’re only halfway up
You’re neither up or down

He marched them to the left
He marched them to the right
He marched them up to the top of the hill
and he marched them out of sight.
