A slice of 1930s silliness which hopefully won't be taken as pro-hunting propaganda. Recorded by both Jack Payne and His B.B.C. Dance Orchestra and Leslie Sarony in its year of release, it was famously revived in the late 1960s by the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band.

This songsheet is based on the Bonzo's recording from their 1969 album, Tadpoles; the clip is a little earlier—taken from the kids' television programme "Do Not Adjust Your Set" (featuring an introduction by Terry Jones),—because it's delightfully unhinged. The original is in Cm, but I've transposed it to Am.
