Paul Whiteman & His Orchestra - The King's Horses (1931)

Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra play “The King's Horses” during a radio aircheck (1931).

This is a Noel Gay song.

The king's horses, the king's men, marched
down the street, and they marched back
again--the king's horses and the king's men.

They're in scarlet, they're in gold.
All dollied up--it's a joy to behold!

The king's horses and the king's men.

They're not out to fight the foe--you might think so.
But, oh dear, no! They're out because they've got to
go to put a little pep into the Lord Mayor's Show!

It's their duty now and then
to march down the street and
to march back again.

The king's horses and the king's men.
