The Ballad of Captain Lamont

[Verse 1]
The dust it rose on the barren trail,
A shadow crawled where the light turned pale.
Captain Lamont and his Gunner horde,
Steel and blood was their only word.

[Prechorus]
The settlers prayed in the morning's hush,
While boots of war kicked up the dust.

[Chorus]
Oh, the old Minuteman, he stood his ground,
With a weathered coat and a rifle's sound.
For the weak and the weary, he raised his hand,
One small company, one last stand.

[Verse 2]
The Gunners came with their iron and fire,
A ruthless force with cruel desires.
But the Minuteman, with his ragged crew,
Knew the cost of freedom, and what to do.

[Prechorus]
The winds did howl, the sky turned red,
As courage rose where fear had bled.

[Chorus]
Oh, the old Minuteman, he stood his ground,
With a weathered coat and a rifle's sound.
For the weak and the weary, he raised his hand,
One small company, one last stand.
