(Tune: My Bonny). 0, give me a bowl of clam chowder, The kind that St. Helens can serve; It makes one feel splendid and Jolly And builds up one's muscle and nerve. True, kings may have costlier dishes To adorn their banquets so gay; But no dish is quite so delicious As St. Helens clam chowder, I say. Chorus; Then sing of clam chowder, ye knights Sing of the broth of the sea; When served good and hot, It hits the right spot St. Helens clam chowder for me. It gives you a hint of the sea-breeze, As It sweeps in over the deep; O, it's the real stuff, I assure you The sort that will bring you sweet sleep. It takes lots of skill to compound it. And make the broth touch the right spot But the Pythian Knights of St. Helens, Have got it down fine to a dot. Chorus: Then sing of clam chowder, ye knights Sing of the broth of the sea; When served good and hot, It hits the right spot - St. Helens clam chowder for me. SV A A. A A. A.. A.
