Lyrics
Just another day, it seems
But not far down the road
Stood a Nation brave and strong
But you'd never know
You'd never know now
What was it made them
Stand their ground
And no one cares why they fell
Why they fell ...
Chorus
Oh Mercia, long may you shine
Oh Mercia, you were from another time
We may not know the reason why
It was buried with you when you died
Oh, Mercia
Glory to old Mercia
They chose a harder road
To defend their way of life
And the words they spoke
The words they spoke now
Now they're dead and gone
But their children's, children's
Children still hold on
They hold on
Chorus
Chorus
Oh Mercia
Mercia
