  • Description: Charles Ives was born in Danbury, Connecticut on October 20, 1874; he died in New York City, May 19, 1954. Here are his own emotionally charged performances of his song entitled "They are there!" (recorded at the Mary Howard Studio in New York City on 24 April 1943. Ives' earlier setting, "He is there!," composed in 1917 had a different text by Col. McCray.)

    In the context of current events, it is interesting
    to revisit the lyrics of this amazing composition:

    "There's a time in many a life
    When it's do, though facing death,
    When our soldier boys
    Will do their part that people can live
    In a world where all will have a say.

    They're concious always of their country's aim,
    Which is liberty for all.

    'Hip, hip, hooray,' you'll hear them say,
    As they go to the fighting front.

    Brave boys are now in action!
    They are there, they will help to free the world.

    They are fighting for the right,
    But when it comes to might,
    They are there, they are there, they are there!
    (You bet they'll be!)

    As the Allies beat up all the war hogs.
    Our boys'll be there, fighting hard,

    And then the world will shout
    the battle cry of freedom,

    Tenting on a new campground,
    Tenting tonight, tenting on a new campground,

    For it's rally round the flag of the People's New Free World, shouting the battle cry of freedom!

    When we're through this cursed war,
    All those dynamite-sneaking gougers,
    Making slaves of men (God damn them),

    Then let all the people rise
    and stand together in brave, kind humanity.

    Most wars are made by small, stupid,
    selfish bossing groups,

    While the People have no say,

    But there'll come a day,
    Hip, hip, hooray,

    When they'll smash all dictators to the wall!

    Let's build a people's world nation, hooray!
    Every honest country free to live its own,
    native life!

    They will stand up for the right,
    But when it comes to might,
    They'll be there, they'll be there, they'll be there!
    (You bet they'll be.)

    Then the People, not just politicians,

    Will rule their own lands and lives,
    And you'll hear the whole universe
    Shouting the battle cry of freedom,

    Tenting on a new campground,
    Tenting tonight, tenting on a new campground,

    For it's rally round the flag
    of the People's New Free World,
    Shouting the battle cry of freedom!
