Iron Maiden - The Trooper

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 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

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
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 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

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
