Lyrics

The Ballad Of Bull

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Sometimes war is killing

Sometimes it's saving lives

It's the judgement of faith

It's nothing that man can dictate

Corporal Leslie Allen carried them from tambu

Saved his brothers in arms

When no would follow through

There and back again

Bull just carried on

Under fire he carried them out one by one

There and back again

Bullets all around

All of the members that he carried away

Twelve men would now live to see one more day

His fear held at bay

As he carried them away

Sometimes war is killing

Sometimes it's saving lives

From australia's shore

Bull Allen went to war

Sometimes war is saving

Sometimes it's taking lives

Thanks to one single man

A dozen more survived

There and back again

Bull just carried on

Under fire he carried them out one by one

There and back again

Bullets all around

All of the men that he carried away

Twelve men would now live to see one more day

His fear held at bay

As he carried them away

Some men return from a war in a bag

And yet the world knows their story

Almost return unwilling to grant

A life and humble at heart

No

There and back again

Bull just carried on

Under fire he carried them out one by one

There and back again

Bullets all around

All of the men that he carried away

Twelve men would now live to see one more day

His fear held at bay

As he carried them away
