[00:36.38] You'll take my life but I'll take yours too

[00:39.38] You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through

[00:42.38] So when you're waiting for the next attack

[00:45.38] You'd better stand there's no turning back

[00:48.39] The bugle sounds the charge begins

[00:51.63] But on this battlefield no one wins

[00:54.64] The smell of acrid smoke and horse's breath

[00:57.63] As I plunge on into certain death

[01:00.13] Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[01:05.89] Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[01:36.14] The horse he sweats with fear we break to run

[01:39.13] The mighty roar of the Russian guns

[01:42.13] And as we race towards the human wall

[01:45.13] The screams of pain as my comrades fall

[01:47.88] We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground

[01:50.89] And the Russians fire another round

[01:53.89] We get so near yet so far away

[01:56.39] We won't live to fight another day

[01:59.39] Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[02:05.14] Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[03:22.49] We get so close, near enough to fight

[03:24.99] When a Russian gets me in his sights

[03:28.24] He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow

[03:31.24] A burst of rounds takes my horse below

[03:33.74] And as I lay there gazing at the sky

[03:36.49] My body's numb and my throat is dry

[03:39.74] And as I lay forgotten and alone

[03:42.74] Without a tear I draw my parting groan

[03:45.24] Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[03:50.99] Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
