We meet to die in freedom's cause |
|
And raise our voices high |
|
We'll join our hands in union strong |
|
To battle or to die |
|
Hold the fort for we are coming |
|
Union men, be strong |
|
Side by side keep pressing onward |
|
Victory will come |
|
Look my comrades |
|
See the union banner waving high |
|
Reinforcements now appearing |
|
Victory is nigh |
|
Hold the fort for we are coming |
|
Union men, be strong |
|
Side by side keep pressing onward |
|
Victory will come |
|
See our numbers still increasing |
|
Hear the bugles blow |
|
By our union we shall triumph |
|
Over every foe |
|
Hold the fort, for we are coming |
|
Union men be strong |
|
Side by side keep pressing onward |
|
Victory will come |
|
Fierce and long the battle rages |
|
But we do not fear |
|
Help will come whenever it's needed |
|
Cheer, my comrades, cheer |
|
Hold the fort, for we are coming |
|
Union men be strong |
|
Side by side keep pressing onward |
|
Victory will come |
