lyrics

You gallant gentlemen all, come listen to me story
It's of the bold Skewbald that noble racing pony
Arthur Marvel was the man who has brought the Skewbald over
He's a diamond of the land and he rolls around in clover

The horses were brought out with saddle, whip and bridle
And the gentlemen did shout when they saw the noble rider
And some did shout hooray as the air was thick with curses
On the grey Griselda sportsmen laid their purses

The trumpet it did sound, they shot off like an arrow
They scarcely touched the ground for the going it was narrow
Then Griselda passed him by, the gentlemen did holler,
"Oh, the grey will win the day and the Skewbald he will follow."

Then halfway round the track up spoke the noble rider,
"I fear we must fall back for she's going like a tiger."
And when they did discourse, bold Skewbald flew like lightning
and chased around the course, and the grey mare she was taken

"Ride on, my noble lord, for they have two hundred guineas
and the prize shall be of gold when we pick become the winner."
Then past the winning post Skewbald won so handy
And horse and rider both ordered sherry wine and brandy

You gallant gentlemen all, come listen to me story
It's of the bold Skewbald that noble racing pony
Arthur Marvel was the man who has brought the Skewbald over
He's a diamond of the land and he rolls around in clover
