Lyrics
Napoleon At Waterloo
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.
He holds us all in his hands
He is the one who's in command
He leads us down to the knoll
The skies begin to fill with smoke
But do not falter, nor stand afraid
He is the one who holds us all
No, do not falter nor stand afraid
He is the one who holds us all
As one by one we fall
There goes now another man down
There goes now another man down
There goes now another man down
They put their trust in his hands
And a medal on his chest
And the ladies who swoon say
That's the place where his purple heart is
Where his purple heart is
Where his purple heart is
Where his purple heart is
Where his purple heart is
There goes now another man down
There goes now another man down
There goes now another man down
The lights light up the backsides
Of all the soldiers on their guard who are waiting
And the captain of the battalion shouts
Fire
There goes now another man down
