Chartist Anthem Lyrics - Chumbawamba

A hundred years, a thousand years, we're marching on the road 

The going isn't easy yet, we've got a heavy load, oh we've got a heavy load 

The way is blind with blood and sweat, and death sings in our ears 

But time is marching on our side, we will defeat the years, oh we will defeat the years 

We men of bone of shrunken shank, our only treasure doth, 

Women who carry at their breast heirs to the hungry earth, oh heirs to the hungry earth 

Speak with one voice, we march, we rest, and march again upon the years 

Sons of our sons are listening to hear the Chartist cheers 

Oh, to hear the Chartists cheers
