lirik lagu baditudes - should i ever (be a soldier)

we’re spending billions every year
for guns and ammunition
our army and our navy dear
to keep in good condition
while millions live in misery
and millions died before us
don’t sing “my country ’tis of thee”
but sing this little chorus;

[chorus]
should i ever be a soldier
‘neath the red flag i would fight
should the gun i ever shoulder
it’s to crush the tyrant’s might
join the army of the toilers
men and women fall in line
wage slave of the world arouse
do your duty for the cause
for land and liberty

[verse 2]
and many a maiden pure and fair
her love and pride must offer
to mammon’s altar in despair
to fill the master’s coffer
and the gold that pays the mighty fleet
from tender youth he squeezes
while brawny men must walk the street
and face the wintry breezes
[chorus]
should i ever be a soldier
‘neath the red flag i would fight
should the gun i ever shoulder
it’s to crush the tyrant’s might
join the army of the toilers
men and women fall in line
wage slave of the world arouse
do your duty for the cause
for land and liberty

[verse 3]
why do they mount their gatling gun
a thousand miles from ocean?
where hostile fleet could never run
ain’t that a funny notion?
if you don’t know the reason why
just strike for better wages
and then, my friends if you don’t die
you’ll sing this song for ages
