02 - H.A. - Sports 1919

I've done a lot of shooting in my time,
I've hunted in most ev'ry sort of clime!
And ev'ry thing I've shot or caught,
In short, I'm a sport,
So don't think I am boasting when I say!
It really is a game that I can play.

I've hunted Elephants in Africa,
I've hunted tigers in Bengal,
And up in Scotland,
I'm shooting boxes!
I've hunted foxes! and all
I've hunted Grizzly's in America
and lots of birds I have brought down;
But I've always thought that the finest sport,
Is stalking "dears" in London Town.

Elephants in Africa,
I've hunted tigers in Bengal,
And up in Scotland,
I'm shooting boxes!
I've hunted foxes! and all
I've hunted Grizzly's in America
and lots of birds I have brought down;
But I've always thought that the finest sport,
Is stalking "dears" in London Town.

At golf I've often done a hole in three,
At tennis I'm as warm as I can be!
Well ev'ry game beneath the sun I've done
had some fun,
In fact, I'm quite a chap who never shrinks,
from any mortal sport bar tiddley winks.

I've hunted Elephants in Africa,
I've hunted tigers in Bengal,
And up in Scotland,
I'm shooting boxes!
I've hunted foxes! and all
I've hunted Grizzly's in America
and lots of birds I have brought down;
But I've always thought that the finest sport,
Is stalking "dears" in London Town.

Elephants in Africa,
I've hunted tigers in Bengal,
And up in Scotland,
I'm shooting boxes!
I've hunted foxes! and all
I've hunted Grizzly's in America
and lots of birds I have brought down;
But I've always thought that the finest sport,
Is stalking "dears" in London Town.
