The world we know is changin' fast The walls are closin' in And now's the time to make a stand Don't let the cowards win We're beset by a common foe Ye can hear the distant drums Yes. We're a force, brave women and men The scheme shall be undone Who'll be the ones to take command my friends Put down the guns and up the sword into the battle Tae the battle again They're comin' for you to smash yer dreams And strangle you with shame So stand yer ground and don't back down Or the struggle will be in vain So sound the change and fire the pipes We're headed homeward bound Yer hearts and souls are burning bright We're headed for higher ground So remember the creed, remember the cry Remember the ancient way And we'll be the ones dug in with the hounds We've taken the highest ground We'll be the ones to take command my friends Put down the guns and up the sword into the battle Tae the battle again
