Soldier, keep on marching on

Head down till the work is done

Waiting on that morning sunSoldier, keep on marching on

Head in the dust, feet in the fire

Labor on that midnight wire

Listening for that angel choir

You got nowhere to run

You wanna take a drink of that promise land

You gotta wipe the dirt off of your hands

Careful son, you got dreamer′s plans

But it gets hard to stand

Soldier, keep on marching on

Head down till the work is done

Waiting on that morning sun

Soldier, keep on marching on

Quiet now, you're gonna wake the beast

Hide your soul out of his reach

Shiver to that broken beat

Dark into the heat

Soldier, keep on marching

Keep on, keep on, keep on

Keep on, keep on marching on

Keep on, keep on marching

You′re gonna rise someday

Soldier, keep on marching on

Keep on, keep on

Keep on marching on

Keep on, keep on marching

Soldier, keep on marching on

Head down till the work is done

Waiting for that morning sun

Soldier, keep on marching on

Soldier, keep on marching on

Soldier, keep on marching on
