Soldier keep on marchin' on
Head down til the work is done
Waiting on that morning sun
Soldier keep on marchin' on
Head in the dust, feet in the fire
Labor on that midnight wire
Listening for that angel choir
You got nowhere to run
You wanna take a drink of that promise land
You gotta wipe the dirt off of your hands
Careful son, you got dreamer's plans
But it gets hard to stand
Soldier keep on marchin' on
Head down til the work is done
Waiting on that morning sun
Soldier keep on marchin' on
Quiet now, you're gonna wake the beast
Hide your soul out of his reach
Shiver to that broken beat
Dark into the heat
Soldier keep on marchin' on
Head down til the work is done
Waiting on that morning sun
Soldier keep on marchin' on
Soldier keep on marchin' on
Head down til the work is done
Waiting on that morning sun
Soldier keep on marchin' on
