The Thin Red Line - Saxon

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 *)
