[00:31.15] Cannons roared in the valley they thundered
[00:32.72] While the guns lit up the night
[00:35.34] Then it rained and both sides wondered
[00:36.78] Who is wrong and who is right
[00:38.59] `
[00:38.90]
[00:50.18] On the wire like a ragged old scarecrow
[00:52.49] Bloody hands and broken back
[00:58.42] When they fire see him pirouette solo
[01:02.61] Jump in time to the rat a tat
[01:06.99] `
[01:07.18] What a night though it's one of seven
[01:09.62]
[01:11.30] What a night for the dancing dead
[01:15.87] What a night to be called to heaven
[01:20.37] What a picture to fill your head
[01:24.31]
[01:24.86] `
[01:41.58] By the wall in a silouette standing
[01:46.01] Through a flash of sudden light
[01:50.20] Cigarette from his mouth just hanging
[01:54.64] Paper square to his heart pinned tight
[02:02.52] `
[02:08.49] Gather round reluctant marksmen
[02:09.68] One of them to take his life
[02:16.99] With a smile he gives them pardon
[02:19.80] Leaves the dark and takes the light
[02:23.92]
[02:25.24] `
[02:25.55]
[03:10.40] They dispatch their precious cargo
[03:14.09] Knock him back right off his feet
[03:18.57] And they pray may no one follow
[03:20.57]
[03:22.76] Better still to face the beast
[03:25.20] `
[03:25.69]
[03:27.63] When the field has become a garden
[03:31.23] And the wall has stood the test
[03:35.96] Children play and the dogs run barking
[03:40.27] Who would think or who would guess
