Song lyrics by E.S. Wynn

Well if I ever go to war again
I've got a machine that'll hit the spot.
Spent a lot of time with my old Enfield
Folks say I'm a heck of a shot.

Got an LB-X that coughs up lead
Like havin' a shotgun for a right arm.
And if that ain't enough to make 'em dead,
Got some lasers that'll do some harm.

[Chorus]
Well I still got my grandpappy's Enfield
Built when the Lyrans first faced the Clans
She can smash 'em up and tear 'em down
If she had hands, could grab 'em by the glands
Well I tell ya there's one thing I can say for sure
And I'll tell you it ain't no lie
Ain't nothing hits the field quite like grandaddy's Enfield
Ninety years and she still fights.

Well I can get her up to about fifty-three
And the double heat sinks keep her cool
She's even got eleven tons of standard plate
Makes her a fine and reliable tool.

And while an extra light engine
Wouldn't be first on my list of needs
Sure is nice to have that extra space
For the lasers and the ammo feeds.

[Chorus]
Well I still got my grandpappy's Enfield
She's fought the Clanners and beaten Blake.
She can smash 'em up and tear 'em down
If its war you want, its war she'll make.
Well I tell ya there's one thing I can say for sure
And I'll tell you it ain't no lie
Ain't nothing puts Clanners down like Peepaw's Enfield
Ninety years and she still fights.

[Bridge]
Well if you never done tried an Enfield
Don't knock her for her looks
She's served in more wars than you can count
Both on and off the books!

[Chorus]
Well I still got my grandpappy's Enfield
Her shot spreads and her lasers straight.
She can smash 'em up and tear 'em down
Just like she did for the Lyran State.
Well I tell ya there's one thing I can say for sure
And I'll tell you it ain't no lie
Ain't nothing as reliable as grandpappy's Enfield
Ninety years and she still fights.

You ever handled an Enfield, Boy?
Don't you be scared now!
She don't kick hard! Yeehaw!
