Loading...

[gints]
forward march for the tsar!
show the coward kraut who we are!
and with god on our side
we will win the fight
send the kaiser fleeing
to berlin in fright!

[gints & soldiers]
on through wind, rain and cold!
no more fearsome sight to behold
than a steadfast hussar
with a sharp scimitar
marching forward! forward!
forward for the tsar!
[gints] (spoken)
this it men; make your peace with god

[liberius] (spoken)
stay close, we’ll find us a nice sh+ll hole to hide in ‘til the shooting stops. might even get lucky and find you boots that fit if the right man goes down
i’m called liberius

[yanko] (spoken)
yanko

[gints]
hear my prayer, oh lord, i beg of you
i have no one else to say this to
when they turn to me
with weary eyes
for the will to fight
with no supplies
help me hide my fear
or we won’t survive
lord above
help me keep these boys alive

[liberius]
with a broken gun and one grenade
i don’t care who dies if i get paid
god i pray you take
the new recruits
so that i can find
a gun that shoots worth a d+mn!
[soldier 1]
if i don’t get home to tell my wife, liberius
may my loved ones know i gave my life… gun that shoots
better boots

[soldier 2]
gun that shoots
for the tsar, all for the tsar. better boots

[soldiers 2 & 3]
lead me safe through flame and poison gas
if i live to see this long night pass

[soldier 4]
for the tsar i pray we win the day

[soldiers 4 & 5]
lead me safe through flame and poison gas
if i live to see this long night pass

[liberius, soldiers 4 & 6]
lead me safe through flame and danger
i’m just fighting for my own ass

[soldier 1]
nerves of iron and b+lls of brass!
[gints]
for the tsar i pray for victory
let me lead my men courageously

[yanko]
lord, if i should fall on the field of war
who will know where i am lying?
will they leave me here ‘til the april thaw?
will there be a name upon my grave
help me hide my fear as the bullets fly
show the other soldiers i am trying
and i only pray if i have to die
let katarina know that i was brave

[all except yanko]
forward, forward!

[gints & soldiers]
on through wind, rain and cold!
no more fearsome sight to behold
than a steadfast hussar
with a sharp scimitar
marching forward! forward!
forward! for the tsar
