Terrier Song

 

Theres many a song about hunting, huntsmen are honoured by name,

But theres never a song about terriers, that in Lakeland have gained lasting fame,

No pedigrees have these brave warriors, their colours no rules can define,

Theyre bred for pluck and spirit, with a heart as big as a lion.

 

Chorus:

So always remember your terriers, protect them from wet and from cold,

For the love of a tyke for its master, can never be measured in gold.

 

Whether hes rough or smooth coated, hell tackle badger, otter or fox,

Run a drain or creep into a soil hole, or squeeze through a grike in the rocks,

Whether its Trixie or Nellie, Rock, Jock or Turk its the same,

One quality youll find amongst them and dalesfolk call it dead game

 

Hell yield not one inch though they maul him, hell fight to the death on his own.

Though sometimes hell be imprisoned by a rushing of soil or of stone,

Then the brave lads of the vallies, to save him will toil day and night,

And join in a halloa of gladness as he blinks back to gods blessed light.

 

At Crufts famous show down in London, theyve terriers there not worth their name,

If you show them a fox or an otter, theyll fly for their lives without shame,

Theyre not built to creep or do battle, but to sit on a chair in a house,

And they do say that one recent champion was chased down the road by a mouse.

 

So heres to our gallant laal workers, not beauties perhaps but theyll do,

For with gameness and also affection theyll make you a pal good and true,

And when your terrier in old age is dying, and things around you seem sad,

Just a lick on the hand will console you for a better friend man never had.
