Up he rose and forth they went
Into the battleground fortress tent
Mountains wilderness fields and farm
The soldier and the general arm in arm
Off they ride
Side by side
Through the travail of ages
Midst the pomp and toils of war
Have I fought strove and perished
Countless times under the stars
As it through a glass and darkly
The ageal stripe I see
I fought in many guises many names
But it was always me
Off they ride
Side by side
I was there in
Lived and died
Lived and died
Lived and died
So up he rose and forth they went
Into the battleground fortress tent
Mountains wilderness fields and farm
The soldier and the general arm in arm
Off they ride
Side by side
