The Trooper-Iron Maiden

[00:36.95]You'll take my life but I'll take yours too [00:39.01] [00:39.89]You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through [00:41.88] [00:42.90]So when you're waiting for the next attack [00:44.71] [00:45.77]You'd better stand there's no turning back. [00:47.78] [00:48.97]The Bugle sounds and the charge begins [00:50.84] [00:51.66]But on this battlefield no one wins [00:53.63] [00:55.00]The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath [00:57.12] [00:57.92]As I plunge on into certain death. [01:00.06] [01:00.68]Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh [01:05.30] [01:37.86]The horse he sweats with fear we break to run [01:39.67]The mighty roar of the Russian guns [01:41.37] [01:42.42]And as we race towards the human wall [01:44.23] [01:45.30]The screams of pain as my comrades fall. [01:47.86] [01:48.48]We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground [01:50.35] [01:51.15]And the Russians fire another round [01:53.49] [01:54.18]We get so near yet so far away [01:56.13] [01:57.18]We won't live to fight another day. [01:59.26] [01:59.82]Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh [02:12.12] [03:23.90]We get so close near enough to fight [03:25.95]When a Russian gets me in his sights [03:27.71] [03:28.64]He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow [03:30.57] [03:31.52]A burst of rounds take my horse below. [03:33.57] [03:34.31]And as I lay there gazing at the sky [03:36.33] [03:37.21]My body's numb and my throat is dry [03:39.28] [03:40.23]And as I lay forgotten and alone [03:42.15] [03:42.90]Without a tear I draw my parting groan. [03:45.84]Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
