The Story of a Soldier - La Storia Di Un Soldato |
| Bugles are calling |
| From prairie to shore |
| «Sign up and fall in |
| And march into war.» |
| Drums beating loudly |
| Hearts beating proudly |
| March blue and gray |
| And smile as you go |
| Smoke hides the valleys |
| And fire paints the plains |
| Loud roar the cannons |
| Till ruin remains |
| Bluegrass and cotton |
| Burnt and forgotten |
| All hope seems gone |
| So soldier march on |
| To die |
| Count all the crosses |
| And count all the tears |
| These are the losses |
| And sad souvenirs |
| This devastation |
| Once was a nation |
| So fall the dice |
| How high is the price? |
| There in the distance |
| A flag I can see |
| Scorched and in ribbons |
| But whose can it be? |
| How ends the story? |
| Whose is the glory? |
| Ask if we dare |
| Our comrades out there |
| Who sleep |
| Count all the crosses |
| And count all the tears |
| These are the losses |
| And sad souvenirs |
| This devastation |
| Once was a nation |
| So fall the dice |
| How high is the price |
| We pay? |
