Form! form! Riflemen, form!

Ready, be ready to meet the storm!

Riflemen, riflemen, riflemen, form!

Let your Reforms for a moment go,

Look to your butts, and take good aims.

Better a rotten borough or so,

Than a rotten fleet or a city in flames!

Form! form! Riflemen form!

Ready, be ready to meet the storm!

Riflemen, riflemen, riflemen, form!
