Over deze songtekst:
Het lied heeft ook als titel: A Drop Of Nelson's Blood.
Na de dood van admiraal Nelson (in 1805) werd zijn lichaam bewaard in een kist gevuld met brandy of rum. Nelson's blood werd een bijnaam voor rum! Ook betekent Nelson's blood: Nelson's dappere geest.
Er is overigens geen enkel bewijs dat dit lied uit de tijd van Nelson stamt.
Roll the Chariot is een term die gebruikt wordt in religieuze kringen. Daarmee wordt het verspreiden van Gods Woord bedoeld.
