The Thin Red Line

Song The Thin Red Line
Artist Saxon
Album Unleash the Beast

Lyrics

You'd better sleep with your rifle
Keep your powder dry
Fighting for your country
See the colours fly
They'll be coming in the morning boys
You gotta hold the line
You're the men from
Harloch You are standing proud
You're the
Queen's light infantry
Sing out loud
They'll be coming in the morning boys
You gotta hold the line
You came for the glory (*)
To fight and to die
You stood in the thin red line
Remember the heroes
When stories are told
They died in the thin red line
Stand stady in the ranks boys
You gotta hold your fire
We'll show them what we're made of
When they hit the wire
They'll be coming in the morning boys
You gotta hold the line
You'll be thinking of your love ones
That you left back there
Then the sound of the bugle
Cuts the cool night air
They'll be coming in the morning boys
We gotta hold the line (Repeat *)
Now you lay with your comrades
Far across the sea
Where you fighting for the
Empire Did you die for me
They'll be coming in the morning boys
You gotta hold the line (Repeat *)
