Let the drums roll out
Let the trumpets call
While the people shout
Strike up the band

Hear the cymbals ring
Calling one and all
To the martial swing
Strike up the band

There is work to be done, to be done
There’s a war to be won, to be won
Come you son of a son, of a gun
Take your stand

Fall in line, yea a bow
Come along, let’s go
Hey, Leader, strike up the band

There is work to be done, to be done
There’s a war to be won, to be won
Come you son of a son, of a gun
Take your stand

Fall in line, yea a bow
Come on, let’s go
Hey, Leader, strike up
Hey, Leader, strike up
Hey, Leader, strike up the band
