The Beginning Of The Armadilloes

I've never sailed the Amazon,

I've never reached Brazil;

But the Don and Magdalena,

They can go there when they will!

Yes, weekly from Southampton

Great steamers, white and gold,

Go rolling down to Rio

(Roll down roll down to Rio!).

And I'd like to roll to Rio

Some day before I'm old!

I've never seen a Jaguar,

Nor yet an Armadill

He's dilloing in his armour,

And I s'pose I never will,

Unless I go to Rio

These wonders to behold

Roll down roll down to Rio

Roll really down to Rio!

Oh, I'd love to roll to Rio

Some day before I'm old!
