Dance Of The Old Brigade

All of the boys have gone down to the fight
The balalaika's ringing out through the night
Everyone turns in surprise and delight
As Vasily orders a drink
He knows that I fell alone
Screaming out through blood and through bone
But the song comes over the gramophone,
The Dance of the Old Brigade

Alas, says he, with a wave of his hands
When the armies of the madman they tore through this land
We lost more than you kids understand
And now there is nothing to save
And my heart is dry as a stone
As he turns to take the southern roads home
And I know that soon I'll be left alone
With the dance of the old brigade

And you who would make a fire in these men
Their guts for your kindling and a whispered amen
When the armies of the Saviour come marching again
Youll lie in the beds that you've made
For somewhere by the banks of the Lee
There's a woman waiting forever for me
And the song goes whistling through the chestnut trees
The dance of the Old Brigade
