A view to see of red and gold <br />the horses march ahead <br />and through the great imperial gate <br />the stately coach is led <br /> <br />With many years of joy and tears <br />the Queen admires the crowd <br />she's seen it all her head still tall <br />a wave a smile a bow <br /> <br />A sea of heads and arms and legs <br />erupt as she goes by <br />the banners wave the big parade <br />the screams the shouts the cries <br /> <br />Only in old London town <br />could such a sight be seen <br />oh what a wonder she endows <br />gentlemen the Queen.<br /><br />Charles M.
