Rick Springfield — All Hands on Deck

[Verse 1] Wake me up red white blue reveille Raise me from this night Say five words that lift me from my knees Forward to the good fight Rise up all you golden slumbering With the call to arms Will your children wake up wondering How we came to harm Will this big star spangled sky's past victories Shield us from the fight And the distant sounds of foreign enemies Marching in the moonlight [Chorus] From the mountains to the fertile plains With the pulse of lightning in our veins Hallelujah strike the band in hopes We will survive this shipwreck Call all hands on deck [Verse 2] No one comes to steal our families Not here on our watch Knowing that the dawn of liberty Wasn't gates and locks But with shouts of freedom call the cavalry Ringing through the halls While the purple mountains in their majesty Steel us so we won't fall [Chorus] From the mountains to the fertile plains With the pulse of lightning in our veins Hallelujah strike the band in hopes We will survive this shipwreck Call all hands on deck [Outro] I see my father's spirit in my eyes I pray I won't run from the battlecry Hail and thunder danger comes with lies Torn asunder in the bursting skies Hallelujah strike the band with cries We will survive this shipwreck Sing all hands on deck
