I'll remember I'll try, it was nearly July   As we walked down the road I'll remember the year   There was me, there was Sam, Jimmy Sloan and McCann   Would enlist in the Volunteers   And the man says to me, 'Boy I hope you will see   'And remember this day all the things you've been taught'   It could be now or then, but we'll fight once again   For the things that our grandfathers fought.   And I swore like the rest to the badge on my breast   To the gun in my hand I will fight for my land   With my hand held high I took that vow    And I joined Number One Platoon      And deep down inside my heart fills with pride   I remember the men who have fought through the years   I could name quite a few but to me and to you   They were Ulster Volunteers   And the man said to me, boy i hpoe you will see   And remember this day   All the things you've been taught   It could be now or then, but we'll fight once again    For the things that our grandfathers fought.   And I swore like the rest to the badge on my breast   To the gun in my hand I will fight for my land   With my hand held high I took that vow   And I joined Number One Platoon.
