WE ARE SOLDIERS IN THE ARMY
We are soldiers in the army,we've got
to fight although we have to cry we have
to hold up the blood stained banner
we have to hold it up until we die.
Repeat.
My Mother was a soldier she had her hand
on the gospel plow but then one day
when she got old couldn't stand
but she said I'll fight anyhow
We are soldiers in the army, we got
fight although we have to cry we have
to hold up the blood stained banner
we have to hold it up until we die.
My Father was a soldier he had his hand
on the gospel plow but one day he
got old couldn't fight anymore, he
said I'll stand here and fight anyhow
We are soldiers in the army,we got
to fight although we have to cry we have
to hold up the blood stained banner
we have to hold it up until we die.
We are soldiers in the army,we got
to fight although we have to cry we have
to hold up the blood stained banner
we have to hold it up until we die.
We got to hold it up
we got to hold it up
we got to hold it up
we got to hold it up
we got to hold it up
we got to hold it up
we got to hold it up
until we die
