The soldier wounded, the battle was fought
and gasping on his deathbed he lies
shuddering rises the cross he had bought
at the market before the winter Assize
and gasping on his deathbed he lies
with around him his comrades aghast
Shuddering rises the cross he had bought
while near him his friend breathes his last
With around him his comrades aghast
their horses wild and screaming high "C"
while near him his friend breathes his last
He wonders if death really sets one free
Their horses wild and screaming high "C "
shuddering rises the cross he had bought
while near him his friend breathes his last
the soldier wounded, the battle was fought
