In an instant before sunrise
they had gunned the rebels down
As their flags were torn at half

mast in the ruins ofthe town

water for the crippled on the beach
There was a lack of ammunition

so the cause was incomplete

and they knew their ships were in

Signs of grand assurance

were carried on the wind

Take it home, take it low,

take responsibilities
Came the message

from the front

captains quarters must retreat

Pack the compass,

pack the tents, take the bunks

but they kept their uniforms, They
put their medals on the Sideboards

and they went back to their farms

that they stood beside the best

That God had saved the chosen

few and the devil took the rest

So take it home, take it low,

take responsibilities
Came the message

from the front

Came the message

from the front

0n the plains above the rock face
where the sculptured eagles swoop
There's a haunted yell for action

among the spectres of his troops

So take it home, take it low,

take responsibilities
Came the message

from the front

Came the message

from the front

captains quarters must retreat

Pack the compass,

pack the tents, take the bunks

Take it low

Take responsibilities

Take it home

Take responsibilities

Take it home
