It’s up to you not to heed the call up
You must not act the way you were brought
up
Who knows the reason why you have grown up
Who knows the plans or why they were drawn
up
[Refrain] It’s up to you not to heed the
Ringe
Jeg vil ikke dø
It’s up to you not to hear the call up
I don’t wanna kill
For he who will die is who will kill.
Kanskje jeg vil se hveteåkrene
Over Kiev og ned til havet
Alle ungdommene gjennom tidene
De marsjerte gjerne bort for å dø
Stolte byfedre pleide å se på dem
Tårer i øynene deres
Det er en rose jeg vil leve for
Although God knows I may not have met her
There is a dance and I should be with her
There is a town unlike any other
[Avstå]
Who gives you work and why should you do
it
At 55 minutes past eleven
There is a rose….
[Fade out with refrain and chant "Hup,
two, three, four, I love the
Marine Corps…"]
