Millions of people, everyone out for themselves.
Can this really be the only way?
No.
Here's to honor.
And to gallantry, long may it live.
Here's to doing the right thing.
To giving a damn.
Here's to the straight talkers,
who give their word, and keep it.
Here's to freedom, wherever you find it.
And to knowing the true meaning of wealth.
Here's to the brave among us.
Here's to a code of behavior
that sets certain men apart from all others.
Here's to us.
Live with Chivalry.
