[Verse 1] Boots on the ash road Banner in the wind General on the front line And the whole line rolled in From the barn to the broken bridge We heard that old call Minutemen were rising To take it all
[Pre-Chorus] See that blue sky coming Over broken ground Grand Airship overhead And the fear just breaks down
[Chorus] Blue banner sky Take it back, take it back Blue banner sky Hold the line, hold the line Raiders run Mutants fall General leads And we answer all (Blue banner sky) (Blue banner sky)
[Verse 2] Vertibirds in the dusk Cut the smoke in two APCs on the blacktop Rolling hard and true They hit those raider camps Like thunder on the hills Every cruel little stronghold Gets a harder will
[Pre-Chorus] See that blue sky coming Over broken ground Grand Airship overhead And the fear just breaks down
[Chorus] Blue banner sky Take it back, take it back Blue banner sky Hold the line, hold the line Raiders run Mutants fall General leads And we answer all (Blue banner sky) (Blue banner sky)
[Bridge] From Concord to the coast From the farms to the fort Every scared-down family Gets a fighting sort No more crawling for mercy No more sleeping in dust We stand up together And we turn to rust
[Final Chorus] Blue banner sky Take it back, take it back Blue banner sky Hold the line, hold the line Raiders run Mutants fall General leads And we answer all Blue banner sky We’re coming home Blue banner sky Commonwealth is won (Blue banner sky) (Blue banner sky)
