Jolly Rogers Rally Round The Drum Lyrics

Rally 'round the drum, boys, rally 'round the drum
We'll need all your powder, we'll need all your guns
Rally ‘round the drum, boys, rally round the drum
We'll need all your courage, we'll need all your sons

Hear the drummer's anthem call across the land
It grows ever stronger through every boy and man
Kiss your wife and children, that's what we're fighting
for
Then come and join the rest as we go marching off to
war!

Now the time has come, men, now the time is near
No time for hesitation, no time for showing fear
We have but two thousand, we'll need a thousand more
When we have three thousand we'll all march off to war.

[CHORUS]

Hear the drumbeat growing as it echoes in your chest As we all march forward feel pity for the rest
Like the wives and children they'll be safe and sound
But they'll never know the glory of a hero's renown.

[CHORUS]

We'll fight them in the valley, we'll fight them on the
plains
We'll heed the drummer's call till the last of them are
slain
We'll fight them in the mountains, we'll fight them on
the sea
We will not stop fighting till death or victory

[CHORUS]

Rally 'round the drum, boys, rally 'round the drum
We'll need all your powder, we'll need all your guns
Rally ‘round the drum, boys, rally round the drum
We'll need all your courage, we'll need all your sons
