|
He holds us all in his hands |
|
He is the one who's in command |
|
He leads us down to the knoll |
|
The skies begin to fill with smoke |
|
But do not falter, nor stand afraid |
|
He is the one who holds us all |
|
No, do not falter nor stand afraid |
|
He is the one who holds us all |
|
As one by one we fall |
|
There goes now another man down |
|
There goes now another man down |
|
There goes now another man down... |
|
They put their trust in his hands |
|
And a medal on his chest |
|
And the ladies who swoon say |
|
That's the place where his purple heart is |
|
Where his purple heart is |
|
Where his purple heart is |
|
Where his purple heart is |
|
Where his purple heart is |
|
There goes now another man down |
|
There goes now another man down |
|
There goes now another man down... |
|
The lights light up the backsides |
|
Of all the soldiers on their guard who are waiting |
|
And the captain of the battalion shouts |
|
Fire... |
|
There goes now another man down... |
