We're pushing through these farming towns

We worked hard ploughing over ground

Red army calls you the call of the crowd

Red army needs you they call you now

Cantonese boy

Bang your tin drum

Cantonese boy

Civilian soldier

Cantonese boy

Bang your tin drum

Cantonese boy

Red army calls you home

We're singing marching through the hills

We're changing the lives we've led for years

Red army calls you the call of the crowd

Red army needs you they call you now

Cantonese boy

Bang your tin drum

Cantonese boy

Civilian soldier

Cantonese boy

Bang your tin drum

Cantonese boy

Red army calls you home

Red army calls you

Red army needs you

Gentlemen you heard us call

Raised your glass and called for more

Only young men broke the wall
