Do you hear the people sing?
They cry out for your sacrifice
As you stand upon the barricades
Ready to give your life
So stand tall and stand up proud
Waving your flag high in the air
Telling everyone in the city
That yes, "I will be there"
Will you follow where he leads
Will you take your place with them?
Where the blood that is shed
Turns younger boys into men
But to never say die
Is the message that we'll try to send
Do you hear the people sing?
They cry out for your sacrifice
As you stand upon the barricades
Ready to give your life
So stand tall and stand up proud
Waving your flag high in the air
Telling everyone in the city
That yes, "I will be there"
Will you give all you can give
Even if that means your life
Do you believe in freedom for all
Leave your children leave your wife
Just for the chance
To end the injustice and strife?
Do you hear the people sing?
They cry out for your sacrifice
As you stand upon the barricades
Ready to give your life
So stand tall and stand up proud
Waving your flag high in the air
Telling everyone in the city
That yes, "I will be there"
