Calling All the Heroes

Lyrics

We left you in pastures rarely seen (holding out the fortress for a while) Everyone knew why the calm had been (keeping friends among you saves a fight) In the dead of the night there was movement and shadows Attacking the women and taking the gold The men were away and no one could hear them They still cry today when the story is told High on a mountain out searching for gold Men have had warning of scriptures foretold Turn around and fight for freedom you can hear the people screaming Calling all the heroes, they're shooting up the town boys Call all the heroes Calling all the heroes, they're burning up the town boys Calling you The men returned to find their home destroyed (people rushing round with scars of war) Babies crying the aged wounded mourned (calling out for someone to hear their prayers) Five miles away were the thieves and the bandits Laughing and joking and sickly and crude They didn't know that the men had come back home They didn't know they were being pursued High on a mountain the men looked below Cooked up a plan that would outwit their foe They scrambled down the mountain shooting reclaimed all the bandits looted Calling all the heroes, they're shooting up the town boys Call all the heroes Calling all the heroes, they're burning up the town boys Calling you [Instrumental Break] Calling all the heroes Shooting up the town boys Call all the heroes Calling all the heroes, they're shooting up the town boys Call all the heroes Calling all the heroes, they're burning up the town boys Call all the heroes Calling all the heroes, they're shooting up the town boys Call all the heroes...
