Text
[Verse 1]
The dust rolled in at dawn
Over busted fence and bone
Gunner boots on our roads
And smoke around the home
The General hit the square
With fire in his eyes
Said every hand we got
Will rise, and rise, and rise
[Pre-Chorus]
Bring the old rifles out
Ring the warning bell
Every farm and factory
Knows this kind of hell
No step back, no slow retreat
We stand where we belong
The line is thin, the blood is hot
But damn, we hold it strong
[Chorus]
Great Homeland, stand
Stand up, stand
Great Homeland, stand
We fight with hand and hand
Great Homeland, stand
Till the invaders run
Great Homeland, stand
We are the chosen ones
[Verse 2]
From the broken rail yard
To the wheatfield gate
Mothers loading up the trucks
And kids look past their fear to fate
The General shook the map
He pointed to the hill
Said if they want our country
They'll have to take us all and spill
[Pre-Chorus]
Bring the old rifles out
Ring the warning bell
Every farm and factory
Knows this kind of hell
No step back, no slow retreat
We stand where we belong
The line is thin, the blood is hot
But damn, we hold it strong
[Chorus]
Great Homeland, stand
Stand up, stand
Great Homeland, stand
We fight with hand and hand
Great Homeland, stand
Till the invaders run
Great Homeland, stand
We are the chosen ones
[Bridge]
I see the smoke on the ridge
I hear the whole town pray
If this is the hour of fire
Then let it burn our fear away
The General raised his hand
And the whole front gave a shout
When the night came crashing in
We were what they feared about
[Final Chorus]
Great Homeland, stand
Stand up, stand
Great Homeland, stand
We fight with hand and hand
Great Homeland, stand
Till the invaders run
Great Homeland, stand
We are the chosen ones
Great Homeland, stand
Stand up, stand
Great Homeland, stand
And never give it up
The dust rolled in at dawn
Over busted fence and bone
Gunner boots on our roads
And smoke around the home
The General hit the square
With fire in his eyes
Said every hand we got
Will rise, and rise, and rise
[Pre-Chorus]
Bring the old rifles out
Ring the warning bell
Every farm and factory
Knows this kind of hell
No step back, no slow retreat
We stand where we belong
The line is thin, the blood is hot
But damn, we hold it strong
[Chorus]
Great Homeland, stand
Stand up, stand
Great Homeland, stand
We fight with hand and hand
Great Homeland, stand
Till the invaders run
Great Homeland, stand
We are the chosen ones
[Verse 2]
From the broken rail yard
To the wheatfield gate
Mothers loading up the trucks
And kids look past their fear to fate
The General shook the map
He pointed to the hill
Said if they want our country
They'll have to take us all and spill
[Pre-Chorus]
Bring the old rifles out
Ring the warning bell
Every farm and factory
Knows this kind of hell
No step back, no slow retreat
We stand where we belong
The line is thin, the blood is hot
But damn, we hold it strong
[Chorus]
Great Homeland, stand
Stand up, stand
Great Homeland, stand
We fight with hand and hand
Great Homeland, stand
Till the invaders run
Great Homeland, stand
We are the chosen ones
[Bridge]
I see the smoke on the ridge
I hear the whole town pray
If this is the hour of fire
Then let it burn our fear away
The General raised his hand
And the whole front gave a shout

[Final Chorus]
Great Homeland, stand
Stand up, stand
Great Homeland, stand
We fight with hand and hand
Great Homeland, stand
Till the invaders run
Great Homeland, stand
We are the chosen ones
Great Homeland, stand
Stand up, stand
Great Homeland, stand
And never give it up
