(Old King Cole was a merry old soul,
And a merry old soul was
he.
He called for his wife in the middle of the night,
And he
called for his fiddlers three.
Now every fiddler had a very fine
fiddle,
And a very fine fiddle had he.

said the fiddler,
What merry men are we.
There's none so fair as
can compare with the boys of the (your team) RFC.
