Oh no cannonball did fly, no rifles cut us down

No bombs fell from the sky, no blood did soak the ground

But just as sure as the hand of God, they brought death to my hometown
C C G C
They brought death to my hometown, boys

No shells ripped the evening sky, no cities burning down

No armies stormed the shores for which we'd die no dictators were crowned

I awoke from a quiet night, I never heard a sound
C C G C
Marauders raided in the dark and brought death to my hometown, boys
C G C
Death to my hometown
