Robert B. Sherman - Overture / The Old Home Guard lyrics

[Chanting] Treguna Mecoides Trecorum Satis Dee Treguna Mecoides Trecorum Satis Dee Treguna Mecoides Trecorum Satis Dee Treguna Mecoides Trecorum Satis Dee Treguna Mecoides Trecorum Satis Dee [Home Guardsmen] They're sailing for England Oh what a shame! Someone it after our island again We'll let them have it Oh yes we will! But maybe they won't want it when they get the bill For we wrote the series of the old brigades We know the glory of yesterday's parades We're 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 don't forget the loyal territorials! But who's sticking in here? Who will defend Every inch of England no matter what they send? Who's standing firm in our own front yard? The soldiers of the old home guard That's who! The soldiers of the old home guard! For we wrote the stories of the old brigades We know the glories of yesterday's parades Who's standing firm in our own front yard? The soldiers of the old home guard That's who! The soldiers of the old home guard!
