Strike Up the Band

Let the drums roll out

Let the trumpets call

While the people shout,

"Strike up the band!"



Let the cymbals ring

Callin' one and all

While the saxes swing

Strike up the band



There is work to be done, to be done

There are songs to be sung, to be sung

Hey, you son-of-a-, son-of-a-gun

Here's a plan



Come along, yea a bow

Get it on, let's go

Hey, leader, say, leader

Hey, leader, strike up the band!
