| When I was bound a flight
          cadet, In famous Lincolnsheer,
 Full well I served my master
 For more than one long year,
 Till I took up with poaching,
 As you shall quickly hear:
 Oh! 'tis my delight on a shiny night,
 In the season of the year.
 As me and my comradesAbsconded without fear,
 'Twas then we seed the hall porter
 His Mekon eyes did stare,
 But we can creep and hide, my boys,
 And escape from any where:
 Oh! 'tis my delight on a shiny night,
 In the season of the year.
 |  | As me and my comrades
           With
          lots of girls in towDrank pints and pints of frothy beer,
 We spotted the CO;
 We quickly beat retreat, my boys,
 And to the woods did go:
 Oh! 'tis my delight on a shiny night,
 In the season of the year.
 Bad luck to every COThat lives in Lincolnsheer;
 Success to every flight cadet
 Who makes the best of here;
 For he will always carry on
 with flying, women and beer:
 Oh! 'tis my delight on a shiny night,
 In the season of the year.
