Calling All the Heroes

We left you in pastures rarely seen

(Holding out the fortress for awhile)

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

Men were away and no one could hear them

They still cry today when the story is told

High on the 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

Men returned to find their homes 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 the mountain, the men looked below

Cooked up a plan that would outwit their foe

The 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

Calling all the heroes (Calling all the)

Shooting up the town, boys

Call all the heroes

Calling all the heroes

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
