Turmstadt's Proud Archers

We are Turmstadt's proud archers, we are Drachenwald's pride
At the first sound of war we will look where to hide.
Our captain is bold, our captain is brave
He will march in the front 'til he thinks it's not safe.

On defense of our banner no forces we'll waste,
Those four square feet of cloth can be quickly replaced.
We are training each day till we fall off our feet
Our only maneuver: Disordered retreat.

Our financial status is one of renown:
When we get near an alehouse, all the shutters go down.
But at every event our banner you'll see
Just as long as you state that our drinking is free.

We are loyal and faithful to our King and the Crown,
When he tells us to revel we won't let him down
We are true to our King, this is known far and wide,
We'll just start a rebellion if we think we are right.

Brave fighters, move gently and slow, just be kind,
So that Turmstadt's proud archers can follow behind.
