[Verse 1]
Raider scum on the ridge
Laughin’ at old hats
Say the Minutemen are ghosts
Say they lost all that
But I seen the shine
On that tin and pride
They button up slow
And step out wide
[Pre-Chorus]
From the farms to the forts
Word runs fast
They heard that call
And they answered back
[Chorus]
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Stand in the line
When the shadows fall
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Old medals on
And they answer all
[Verse 2]
They don’t sneak through
They don’t bend the knee
Boots in the dirt
For the whole world to see
Raiders grin till
That first shot rings
Then the brave men rise
Like they were born to this thing
[Pre-Chorus]
From the farms to the forts
Word runs fast
They heard that call
And they answered back
[Chorus]
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Stand in the line
When the shadows fall
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Old medals on
And they answer all
[Bridge]
If the roads go red
And the night gets mean
They’ll hold that ground
For the broken fields
No crown, no throne
Just a name to keep
And a promise laid
In the dust so deep
[Final Chorus]
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Stand in the line
When the shadows fall
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Old medals on
And they answer all
Raider scum on the ridge
Laughin’ at old hats
Say the Minutemen are ghosts
Say they lost all that
But I seen the shine
On that tin and pride
They button up slow
And step out wide
[Pre-Chorus]
From the farms to the forts
Word runs fast
They heard that call
And they answered back
[Chorus]
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Stand in the line
When the shadows fall
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Old medals on
And they answer all
[Verse 2]
They don’t sneak through
They don’t bend the knee
Boots in the dirt
For the whole world to see
Raiders grin till
That first shot rings
Then the brave men rise
Like they were born to this thing
[Pre-Chorus]
From the farms to the forts
Word runs fast
They heard that call
And they answered back
[Chorus]
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Stand in the line
When the shadows fall
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Old medals on
And they answer all
[Bridge]
If the roads go red
And the night gets mean
They’ll hold that ground
For the broken fields
No crown, no throne
Just a name to keep
And a promise laid
In the dust so deep
[Final Chorus]
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Stand in the line
When the shadows fall
Commonwealth calls
Commonwealth calls
Old medals on
And they answer all
Stijl van muziek
Melodic country ballad with steady mid-tempo shuffle, picked acoustic guitar, fiddle sighs, brushed snare, and low porch-piano accents; verse stays spare and story-led, pre-chorus lifts with harmony turns, chorus opens with stacked gang vocals and a pedal-steel cry. Close-mic male vocal, warm and weathered, with short delay throws on the hook and a wind-up riser into each chorus., country
