IMPROMPTU ON GENERAL DUMOURIER’S DESERTION FROM THE FRENCH REPUBLICAN ARMY

YOU'RE welcome to Despots, Dumourier;

You're welcome to Despots, Dumourier:

How does Dampiere do?

Ay, and Bournonville too?

Why did they not come along with you, Dumourier?

I will fight France with you, Dumourier;

I will fight France with you, Dumourier;

I will fight France with you,

I will take my chance with you;

By my soul, I'll dance with you, Dumourier.

Then let us fight about, Dumourier;

Then let us fight about, Dumourier;

Then let us fight about,

Till Freedom's spark be out,

Then we'll be d—d, no doubt, Dumourier.
