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 oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 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 oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 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 oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 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 oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 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 oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 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 oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
