Corb Lund - Horse Soldier! Horse Soldier!
[Chorus]
EmI'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a Amwretched EnglishEmman
EmRouting Bonaparte at WaterB7loo
I'm a Emdragoon on a Amdun, I'm a EmCossack on the Amrun
I'm a Emhorse soldier, B7timeless, through and Emthrough
[Verse 1]
Well, I's with EmCuster and the 7th in ‘7Am6 or ‘77Em  
EmScalped at Little Big Horn by the SiB7oux
And the Emtears and devaAmstation of a Emonce-proud warrior Amnation
This I Emknow ‘cause I was B7riding with them Emtoo
[Verse 2]
And I drank Emmare's blood on the run when I Amrode with the Great KEmhan
On the Emfrozen Mongol steppe while at his B7height
And I's a EmWhite Guard, I's a AmRed Guard, I's the TEmsar's own palace Amhorse guard
When EmRomanov was B7murdered in the nigEmht
[Verse 3]
And EmI knew Salah al-Din and rode his Amswift ArabiEmans
Harassing Emdoomed crusaders on their heavy B7drafts
And Emyet I rode the AmPercheron aEmgainst the circling AmSaracen
And Emonce again, aB7gainst myself was cEmast
[Chorus]
Well, I'm a Emhussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a Amwretched EnglishEmman
EmRouting Bonaparte at WaterB7loo
I'm a Emdragoon on a Amdun, I'm a EmCossack on the Amrun
I'm a Emhorse soldier, B7timeless, through and Emthrough
[Verse 4]
Well, I've Emworn the Mounties crimson, if you're sAmilent and you'll lEmisten
You'll Emknow that it was with them, that I sB7tood
When EmMayerthorpe, she cAmried, as her Emfour horsemen Amdied
EmGunned down in B7scarlet, coldest blEmood
[Verse 5]
Well, I's the Emfirstest with the mostest when I fAmought for Bedford EmForrest
EmSuffered General Wilson's Union B7raid
And mine was Emnot to reason Amwhy, mine was Embut to do or dAmie
At CriEmmea with the cB7harging light briEmgade
[Verse 6]
On Emhire from Swiss or Sweden, be me ChAmristian, be me hEmeathen
The Emdevil to the saber I shall B7put
With a Emcrack flanking manAmeuver, I'm an Emuhlan alles Amuber
Striking Emterror into rB7egiment of foEmot
[Chorus]
Well, I'm a Emhussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a Amwretched EnglishEmman
EmRouting Bonaparte at WaterB7loo
I'm a Emdragoon on a Amdun, I'm a EmCossack on the Amrun
I'm a Emhorse soldier, B7timeless, through and Emthrough
[Verse 7] --Slow Strumming--
Well, I Emknew my days were numbered when oAm’er the trenches lEmumbered
More Emmodern machinations de la guerrB7e
No Emmatch for rapid Amfire or the sEmteel birds of the Amsky
With a Emfinal rear guard B7action I retEmreat
---Strum Once--
No Emmatch for barbed wAmire or the aEmrmoured engines wAmhine
ReEmluctant I retB7ire and take my lEmeave
[Verse 8]
N.C. Am  Em  
Today I ride with special forces on those wily Afghan horses
EmDostum’s Northern Alliance give their B7thanks
And no mEmatter defeat or Amvictory, in bEmattle it occAmurs to me
That Emwe may see a B7swelling in our Emranks
[Chorus] --Normal Strumming--
Well, I'm a Emhussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a Amwretched EnglishEmman
EmRouting Bonaparte at WaterB7loo
I'm a Emdragoon on a Amdun, I'm a EmCossack on the Amrun
I'm a Emhorse soldier, B7timeless, through and Emthrough
I'm a Emhorse soldier, eB7ternal, through and Emthrough
