Stop the Cavalry is a song written and performed by musician Jona (John) Lewie. The song is a blend of anti-war protest and brass band arrangements and became a Christmas radio standard in Britain. The song is set in the front during the Great War where a soldier in a trench wishes he was home for Christmas. The song was never intended as a Christmas hit but the line 'wish I was home for Christmas' made it an appropriate styled song to play around Christmas .
