He had ten thousand men

5-5  6     6    6  6   6   6  6   6    6
He marched them up to the top of the hill

And he marched them down again

And when they were up they were up

And when they were down they were down

5-5   6   6    6   6 6   6   6   6
But when they were only half way up

They were neither up nor down
