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? |
