| [00:36.80] |
You'll take my life but I'll take yours too |
| [00:38.80] |
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through |
| [00:41.80] |
So when you're waiting for the next attack |
| [00:44.80] |
You'd better stand there's no turning back. |
| [00:47.80] |
The Bugle sounds and the charge begins |
| [00:51.80] |
But on this battlefield no one wins |
| [00:54.80] |
The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath |
| [00:56.80] |
As I plunge on into certain death. |
| [00:59.80] |
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh |
| [01:12.85] |
(riff) |
| [01:36.53] |
The horse he sweats with fear we break to run |
| [01:38.80] |
The mighty roar of the Russian guns |
| [01:41.80] |
And as we race towards the human wall |
| [01:44.80] |
The screams of pain as my comrades fall. |
| [01:47.80] |
We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground |
| [01:51.19] |
And the Russians fire another round |
| [01:54.22] |
We get so near yet so far away |
| [01:57.21] |
We won't live to fight another day. |
| [01:59.80] |
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh |
| [02:11.80] |
(solo) |
| [03:22.73] |
We get so close near enough to fight |
| [03:25.67] |
When a Russian gets me in his sights |
| [03:28.57] |
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow |
| [03:31.45] |
A burst of rounds take my horse below. |
| [03:34.34] |
And as I lay there gazing at the sky |
| [03:37.22] |
My body's numb and my throat is dry |
| [03:40.26] |
And as I lay forgotten and alone |
| [03:42.70] |
Without a tear I draw my parting groan. |
| [03:45.74] |
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh |
| [03:57.67] |
