We Are Coming Kaiser william
We are coming from the east
To stay your buzZards' feast.
We are coming to the shores OF the
sea.
For we intend to brave
The storm and the wave
To battle for the right and liberty
We are coming. Kaiser William,
We are coming by the million;
To Yankee music you must dance.
For you'll hear the Yankee yell
As we give your buzzards hell,
When we meet them on the battle
field in France.
We are coming from the west
And we'll never take rest
TIL we win the battle for the free:
We are coming with a will.
And we are after Kaiser Bill,
And well whip him on the land and
sea.
We are coming. Kaiser william,
We are coming by the million;
And our banners waving In advance.
And you'll hoar the cowboys shout
As they put your hosts to rout
When we meet them on the battle
field in France
From the Southland we are COM
Ing,
You may hear the drummer drum
ming
Az the boys are falling into line,
And wen give the boches cold
steel
And you bet we'll make them reel,
AS we drive them to the banks Of
tho Rhine.
We are coming, Kaiser william,
We are coming by the million,
To Dixie music you must dance,
AMI you'll hear the Rebel yell
As we give your buzzards hell
When we meet them on the battle
field In France.
