Stouthearted Men

I've always found this song stirring, even if some think it's corny. Here's the video, and the words are below it.

When you think about it, this song expresses the major theme of stories like Rio Bravo, El Dorado, The Magnificent Seven, Tombstone and Silverado to name just a few (of the best). I want to dedicate this song to the memory of the brave men killed on the Chinook that was shot down in Afghanistan.

YOU WHO HAVE DREAMS,

IF YOU ACT THEY WILL COME TRUE!

TO TURN YOUR DREAMS TO A FACT,

IT`S UP TO YOU!

IF YOU HAVE THE SOUL

AND THE SPIRIT,

NEVER FEAR IT,

YOU`LL SEE IT THROUGH.

HEARTS CAN INSPIRE OTHER HEARTS

WITH THEIR FIRE.

FOR THE STRONG OBEY

WHEN A STRONG MAN

SHOWS THEM THE WAY!



[Chorus]:

GIVE ME SOME MEN

WHO ARE STOUTHEARTED MEN

WHO WILL FIGHT

FOR THE RIGHT

THEY ADORE.

START ME WITH TEN,

WHO ARE STOUTHEARTED MEN

AND I`LL SOON GIVE YOU

TEN THOUSAND MORE.

OH!

SHOULDER TO SHOULDER

AND BOLDER AND BOLDER

THEY GROW

AS THEY GO

TO THE FORE!

THEN THERE`S NOTHING

IN THE WORLD

CAN HALT

OR MAR A PLAN,

WHEN STOUTHEARTED MEN

CAN STICK TOGETHER

MAN TO MAN.
