Chorus 1

Soldier, keep on marching on

Head down 'til the work is done

Waiting on that morning sun

Soldier, keep on marching on

Verse 2

You wanna take a drink of that promised land

You gotta wipe the dirt off of your hands

Careful son, you got dreamer's plans

But it gets hard to stand

Chorus 2

Soldier, keep on marching on

Head down 'til the work is done

Waiting on that morning sun

Soldier, keep on marching on

Verse 3

Quiet now, you're gonna wake the beast

Hide your soul out of his reach

Shiver to that broken beat

Dark into the heat
