A red flag waves in the wind General Sant Anna's army is here Their force exceeded ten times Words have failed We will try with cannon shots Besieged by a rain of bombs No one was killed, we're blessed by God We are too few to succeed But they'll remember the Alamo for sure As united we soar Our rifles will roar The Mexican lead won't tear this wall Side by side With a dream in our heart A newborn Republic will soon arise from us Now they're trying to approach Our requests for help were answered not And we were left here alone To fight a battle that we cannot tell As united we soar Our rifles will roar The Mexican lead won't tear this wall Side by side With a dream in our heart A newborn Republic will soon arise from us Victory or death We know no retreat The Texas Republic will soon be free We've given our lives Pierced by their swords To remind us that blood is the price for freedom
