Ride to the Guns - Jorn

Her majesty Victoria gave call

Upon the troops

And gave the final order for their fate

Into the dawn of silence

The burning desert sands

The hour of the battle was at hand

Stood proud against the evil

The soldiers with no names

They kissed the iron cross

And blessed the land

They faced the deadly enemy

From the wastelands of the Tsar

Encamped up on the valley of the damned

Ride to the guns ride to the guns

Cannon to the left cannon to the right

Cannon to the front

Ride to the guns ride to the guns

Kingdom on the run fighting in the sun

Ride ride ride — ooh

And on their mighty chargers

Went forward on and on

The thunderous six hundred came to die

The torching of a kingdom

The murder of the guns

The order for attack it was a lie

And hell rained down up on them

Who’d taken to the field

And all around destruction came to call

The blood and bones made rivers

The crimson tide did flow

And one by one the brave began to fall

Ride to the guns ride to the guns

Cannon to the left cannon to the right

Cannon to the front

Ride to the guns ride to the guns

Killing in the sun fighting on the run

Die die die

The raven’s wings were silent

They gathered for their feast

No sorrow for the fallen or their deeds

Who would break the silence or pacify the wind

And who would ever cage the Russian beast — oh

Ride to the guns ride to the guns

Cannon to the left cannon to the right

Cannon to the front

Ride to the guns ride to the guns

Cannon to the left cannon to the right

Cannon to the front

Ride to the guns ride to the guns

Fighting 'till death and the final breath

Die die die — yeah

Ride to the guns ride to the guns

Cannon to the left cannon to the right

Cannon to the front

Ride to the guns ride to the guns

Killing in the sun fighting on the run

Ride ride ride
