The call to arms brings such alarm To young men who enter that stage And there upon they act in song With the drama about to be played For duty calls to come to the wall To serve thy country with pride And not to care if fate be dared To seize thy life and to die Such is the way of men long past Who’s fathers and theirs before Past the torch of Freedom’s price To their sons and be done once more Thus the burden of Liberty’s cost Reminds us once again This conviction leads us all To grow from boys to men.
