Break off Dance no more	A
Danger is at the door	A
Music is in arms	B
To signal war's alarms	B
	-
Hark a sudden trumpet calling	C
Over the hill	D
Why are you calling trumpet calling	C
What is your will	D
	-
Men men men	E
Men who are ready to fight	F
For their country's life and the right	F
Of a liberty loving land to be	G
Free free free	G
Free from a tyrant's chain	H
Free from dishonor's stain	H
Free to guard and maintain	H
All that her fathers fought for	A
All that her sons have wrought for	A
Resolute brave and free	G
	-
Call again trumpet call again	E
Call up the men	E
Do you hear the storm of cheers	I
Mingled with the women's tears	J
And the tramp tramp tramp of marching feet	K
Do you hear the throbbing drum	L
As the hosts of battle come	L
Keeping time time time to its beat	K
O Music give a song	M
To make their spirit strong	M
For the fury of the tempest they must meet	K
	-
The hoarse roar	A
Of the monster guns	N
And the sharp bark	O
Of the lesser guns	N
The whine of the shells	P
The rifles' clatter	Q
Where the bullets patter	Q
The rattle rattle rattle	R
Of the mitrailleuse in battle	R
And the yells	P
Of the men who charge through hells	P
Where the poison gas descends	P
And the bursting shrapnel rends	P
Limb from limb	S
In the dim	S
Chaos and clamor of the strife	T
Where no man thinks of his life	T
But only of fighting through	U
Blindly fighting through through	U
'Tis done	V
At last	W
The victory won	V
The dissonance of warfare past	W
	-
O Music mourn the dead	X
Whose loyal blood was shed	X
And sound the taps for every hero slain	H
Then lead into the song	M
That made their spirit strong	M
And tell the world they did not die in vain	H
	-
Thank God we can see in the glory of morn	Y
The invincible flag that our fathers defended	Z
And our hearts can repeat what the heroes have sworn	Y
That war shall not end till the war lust is ended	Z
Then the bloodthirsty sword shall no longer be lord	A2
Of the nations oppressed by the conqueror's horde	A2
But the banners of freedom shall peacefully wave	B2
O'er the world of the free and the lands of the brave	B2
