Death On The Road
 
You'll take my life but I'll take yours too, you'll fire your
musket but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack, you'd better
stand there's no turning back
The bugle sounds and the charge begins, but on this
battlefield no one wins
The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath, as I plunge on
into certain death
 
Oh! oh!
 
The horse he sweats with fear we break to run, the mighty
roar of the Russian guns
And as we race toward the human wall, the screams of pain
as my comrades fall
We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground, and the Russians
fire another round
We get so near yet so far away, we won't live to fight
another day
 
Oh! oh!
 
We get so close near enough to fight, when a Russian gets me
in his sights
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow, a burst of rounds take
my horse below
And as I lay there gazing at the sky, my body's numb and my
throat is dry
And as I lay forgotten and alone, without a tear I draw my
parting groan
 
Oh! oh!
