Be brave-oh, be bold-oh
Let the dice a-roll-oh
We raise our swords and venture forth
For glory and for gold-oh
From taverns warm to dungeons deep
(Be brave-oh, be bold-oh)
We quest and delve to earn our keep
(Let the dice a-roll-oh)
Be brave-oh, be bold-oh
Let the dice a-roll-oh
We raise our swords and venture forth
For glory and for gold-oh
With magic and might as one we stand
(Be brave-oh, be bold-oh)
We trust our lives to fortune’s hand
(Let the dice a-roll-oh)
Be brave-oh, be bold-oh
Let the dice a-roll-oh
We raise our swords and venture forth
For glory and for gold-oh
Come dragons fierce with blazing breath
(Be brave-oh, be bold-oh)
Upon our blades you’ll meet your death
(Let the dice a-roll-oh)
Be brave-oh, be bold-oh
Let the dice a-roll-oh
We raise our swords and venture forth
For glory and for gold-oh
Come tyrants fell with hordes of war
(Be brave-oh, be bold-oh)
We’ll cut ’em all down and shout for more
(Let the dice a-roll-oh)
Be brave-oh, be bold-oh
Let the dice a-roll-oh
We raise our swords and venture forth
For glory and for gold-oh
Come fiends from blackest pits of Hell
(Be brave-oh, be bold-oh)
We’ll send ’em back with steel and spell
(Let the dice a-roll-oh)
Be brave-oh, be bold-oh
Let the dice a-roll-oh
We raise our swords and venture forth
For glory and for gold-oh
And when at last the day is won
(Be brave-oh, be bold-oh)
We’ll drink and revel ’til the coin’s all gone
(Let the dice a-roll-oh)
Be brave-oh, be bold-oh
Let the dice a-roll-oh
We raise our swords and venture forth
For glory and for gold-oh
Be brave-oh, be bold-oh
Let the dice a-roll-oh
We raise our swords and venture forth
For glory and for gold-oh
