Verse
D G A
Come listen young comrades, a hist'ry we'll tell
Bm D G D

Oh it is the story of how a class continues
Bm D G D
To fight battle after battle to smash the old and build the new
[Chorus]
A G D
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A G D
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D G A
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Bm D G D
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 2]
D G A
In the early 60's against increasing exploitation
Bm D G D

E new quality in small quantity from the movement emerged.

Bm D G D
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 3]
D G A
They said "Don't turn off the people by making a scene,

Bm D G D
Down with the lackeysm, down with revisionism!"
[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
D G A
There were still lots of questions, but we never shied
Bm D G D
For we had Marxism-Leninism, an invincible guide
D G A
The trend of unity of Marxist-Leninists irresistably spread
Bm D G D
And defending Marxism we marched ahead.

[Verse 5]
D G A
Liberal leaders housed Marxists in petit-bourgeois plans
Bm D G D
They all did their best to upset our plans
D G A
But they could not stop us, nor could the state attacks
Bm D G D
Nor the jailing of comrades who dared to fight back.
[Chorus]
A G D
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A G D
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D G A
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Bm D G D

[Verse 6]
D G A
Driven into a frenzy, the state sent agent provocateurs
Bm D G D
Into our ranks thinking to stop us for sure
D G A
But their hope for easy vic'try was just a pipe dream
Bm D G D
As we smashed the opportunists and exposed their schemes.
[Chorus]
A G D
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A G D
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D G A
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Bm D G D
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 7]
D G A
The so-called Marxist-Leninists demanded dogma that's pure
Bm D G D
But all they could show us was a gross caricature
D G A
"Safeguard our independence," the opportunists did say,
Bm D G D
But the working class sent it back, "Make the rich pay!"
[Chorus]
A G D
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A G D
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D G A
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Bm D G D
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 8]
D G A
They unfurled their yellow banner called 'Mao Tse-Tung Thought',

Whenever loyal to Marxism we stood our ground
Bm D G D
The three plenum of our Party brought Mao Tse-Tung Thought down.
[Chorus]

Bm D G D
Defend the Marxist-Leninist Party as the vanguard of the class!
[Chorus]
A G D
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
A G D
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
D G A
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Bm D G D
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
