The Horse Soldiers

[Verse] Riding on in the high cold wind On the trail of the old Afghan In the north through the mountain towns Under the command of the mullahs Across the iron border [Prechorus] God knows where they're going [Chorus] And the grey-eyed men all knew And the hard-eyed men rode through And the pale-eyed men rode on And the horse soldiers rode on And the horse soldiers rode on [Verse 2] And the man they call the General The Azbeks call the Lion From the cities to the mountains In the saddle all the time In the mountains and the caves The river and the lakes The mullahs' war machines And their minefields to break God knows where they're going [Chorus] And the grey-eyed men all knew And the hard-eyed men rode through And the pale-eyed men rode on And the horse soldiers rode on And the horse soldiers rode on And the horse soldiers rode on [Bridge] On the trail of the old Afghan In the north through the mountain towns Under the command of the mullahs Across the iron border
