Backs To The Wall
Written by: Doug Scharley
Lyrics © D. R. Scharley Consulting Inc.
The odds are against us
From the very start
Outside aggressors
Want to tear us apart
They hate what we stand for
And they want it to stop
They simply won't quit
'Til they've caused us to drop
(Chorus)
We got our backs to the wall
No options at all
A galvanized force
Doesn’t matter how small
They’re knocking us down
But we’re still standing tall
We’re all for one
And one for all
From Coast to coast
And shore to shore
They hunt us down
And we know the score
They pick us off
Like ducks at the fair
If they don’t get us here
They’re gonna get us there
We choose a point
To stand our ground
A braver group
Will never be found
(Chorus)
We got our backs to the wall
No options at all
A galvanized force
Doesn’t matter how small
They’re knocking us down
But we’re still standing tall
We’re all for one
And one for all
It was a furious fight
To the bitter end
They came in waves
‘Til we couldn’t contend
We fought ‘em hard
And we fought ‘em well
With our backs to the wall
We gave them hell
When the smoke finally cleared
And I looked around
I saw the bodies of my comrades
Lying on the ground
(Chorus)
We got our backs to the wall
No options at all
A galvanized force
Doesn’t matter how small
They’re knocking us down
But we’re still standing tall
We’re all for one
And one for all
We got our backs to the wall
No options at all
A galvanized force
Doesn’t matter how small
They’re knocking us down
But we’re still standing tall
We’re all for one
And one for all
We got our backs to the wall
No options at all
A galvanized force
Doesn’t matter how small
They’re knocking us down
But we’re still standing tall
We’re all for one
And one for all
