Brothers Forevermore

All you men who with me shed your blood today
You'll be my brothers forevermore
This story shall the good man teach his sons.
From this day, to the ending of the world.

Good men at home who are now-a-bed
Shall curse themselves they were not here
Hold their manhood’s cheap while any speaks
That fought with us, this glorious day.

He that has no stomach for this fight
Let him depart, his passport made
Gold in his hand for a passage safe
We would not die in that mans company.
We would not die in that mans company.

I do not covet gold or gentle lands
Such outward things lie not in my desires
If honor is a sin to covet,
I am the most offending soul alive
If honor is a sin to covet,
I am the most offending soul alive

Bridge
Faith is my cause, but if I am marked to die
I wish from home, not one man more.
Gods will, the fewer the men that fight
The greater is the honors share.

All you men who with me shed your blood today
You'll be my brothers forevermore
This story shall the good man teach his sons.
From this day, to the ending of the world.

We Fight, we bleed, we defend, we die
We merry band of brothers… forevermore.
