Iron Maiden The Trooper Lyrics

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

Whoa, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Whoa, 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
Toward 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

Whoa, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Whoa, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

[[[SolO]]]

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

Whoa, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Whoa, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh.
