Originally performed by Iron Maiden
   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.
  
   The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
   The mgihty roar of the Russian guns
   And as we race towards 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.
  
   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.
