The Trooper by Iron Maiden
You'll take my (1)________ but I'll take yours too
You'll (2)________ your (3)____________ but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no (4)______________ back.
The (5)__________ sounds and the charge begins
But on this battlefield no one wins
The (6)__________ of acrid (7)__________ and horses breath
As I plunge on into (8)______________ death.
The horse he sweats with (9)________ we break to run
The mighty roar of the (10)______________ guns
And as we race (11)______________ the human wall
The screams of (12)________ as my (13)________________ fall
We hurdle (14)____________ that lay on the ground
And the Russians fire another round
We get so (15)________ yet so far away
We were (16)__________ to (17)__________ (18)______________ day.
We get so (19)__________ near enough to fight
When a Russian gets me in his sights
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
A burst of (20)____________ (21)________ my horse below.
And as I lay there (22)____________ at the sky
My body's numb and my (23)____________ is dry
And as I lay (24)__________________ and alone
Without a (25)________ I draw my (26)______________ groan
You'll (2)________ your (3)____________ but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no (4)______________ back.
The (5)__________ sounds and the charge begins
