Pomi D'Ottone E Manici Di Scopa - Old Home Guard (Overture)
TheyÂre sailing for England
Oh! What a shame!
Someone is after our island again
WeÂll let them have itÂ
Oh, yes we will!
But maybe they wonÂt want it when they get the bill!
For we wrote the stories of the old brigades
We know the glory of yesterdayÂs parades
WeÂre celebrating yard by yard
The soldiers of the old home guard!
We Will!
The soldiers of the old home guard!
Call out the navy, call out the ranks
Call out the air force, call out the tanks.
From the cliffs of Dover call up the gulls
And donÂt forget the loyal territorials!
But, whoÂs sticking in here? Who will defend
every inch of England no matter what they send?
WhoÂs standing firm in our own front yard?
The soldiers of the old home guard
ThatÂs Who!
The soldiers of the old home guard
For we wrote the stories of the old brigades
We know the glory of yesterdayÂs parades
WhoÂs standing firm in our own front yard?
The soldiers of the old home guard
ThatÂs Who!
The soldiers of the old home guard
Oh! What a shame!
Someone is after our island again
WeÂll let them have itÂ
Oh, yes we will!
But maybe they wonÂt want it when they get the bill!
For we wrote the stories of the old brigades
We know the glory of yesterdayÂs parades
WeÂre celebrating yard by yard
The soldiers of the old home guard!
We Will!
The soldiers of the old home guard!
Call out the navy, call out the ranks
Call out the air force, call out the tanks.
From the cliffs of Dover call up the gulls
And donÂt forget the loyal territorials!
But, whoÂs sticking in here? Who will defend
every inch of England no matter what they send?
WhoÂs standing firm in our own front yard?

WhoÂs standing firm in our own front yard?
