Oh, when the storms come rolling
And the night begins to fade
In the lonely light of morning
There stands a forgotten maidShe turns skyward for answers
And finds there's none to be found
A desperate plea she whispers
That he returns safe and soundAnd when the airships come
Her screams will scatter across the night
And when the battle comes
She will carry on the fight
Oh-oh yes, she will carry on the fightWhen the cannon fire's rolling
Watch the lightning in her eyes
The Grim Reaper she's extolling
Bloody vengeance is her prizeWhen her temper is ablaze
She'll see every debt is paid
What a bloody trail she will blaze
Her tools: her gun and her bladeAnd when the airships come
Her screams will scatter across the night
And when the battle comes
She will carry on the fight
Oh-oh yes, she will carry on the fightShe will fight for forever
For her battle's never won
When at last her husband finds her
She's already dead and goneAnd when the airships come
His screams will scatter across the night
And when the battle comes
He will carry on the fight
Oh-oh yes, he will carry on the fight
