Ride Across The River Lyrics

I'm a soldier of freedom in the army of man

We are the chosen, we're the partisan

The cause it is noble and the cause it is just

We are ready to pay with our lives if we must

Gonna ride across the river deep and wide

Ride across the river to the other side

I'm a soldier of fortune, I'm a dog of war

And we don't give a damn who the killing is for

It's the same old story with a different name

Death or glory, it's the killing game

Gonna ride across the river deep and wide

Ride across the river to the other side

Nothing gonna stop them as the day follows the night

Right becomes wrong, the left becomes the right

And they sing as they march with their flags unfurled

Today in the mountains, tomorrow the world

Gonna ride across the river deep and wide

Ride across the river to the other side
