Deep in the castle, back from the war 

Back with milady and the fires burnt tall 

Hurrah went the men down below 

All outside was the rain and snow 

Hear their shouts, hear their roars 

They've probably had a barrel, and much, much more 

Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah, Yea 

Over the hills came the swords of a thousand men 



We had to meet the enemy a mile away 

Thunder in the air and the sky turned grey 

Assembling the knights and their swords were sharp 

But there wasn't a hope in your English hearts 

Hear our roar, hear our sound 

We're gonna fight until we've won this town 

Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah, Yea 

Over the hills came the swords of a thousand men 



When the knights come along at the end of the day 

Some are half-alive and some have run away 

Hear our triumph, hear our roar 

We're gonna drink a barrel, and much, much more 

Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah, Yea 

Over the hills came the swords of a thousand men 



Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah, Yea 

Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah, Yea - yea 



Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah, Yea 

Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah, Yea - yea 



Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah, Yea 

Over the hills came the swords of a thousand
