- The full story of the cavalryman. -- Original song by Corb Lund Band!
I'll warn you ahead-of-time that this song changes tone significantly with the reprise.
Lyrics:
I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
I wanna steed under me like my forefathers before
I wanna mount when the bugle sounds and I hear the cannons' roar
I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
Well, I wanna horse in the volunteer force that's riding forth at dawn
Please save for me some gallantry that will echo when I'm gone
I beg of you sarge let me lead the charge when the battle lines are drawn
Lemme at least leave a good hoof beat they'll remember loud and long
Well, I’d not a good foot soldier make, I'd be sour and slow at march
And I'd be sick on a navy ship, and the sea would leave me parched
But I'd be first in line if they'll let me ride, by god, you'll see my starch
Lope back o'er the heath with the laurel wreath underneath that vict’ry arch
So, I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
I wanna good steed under me like my forefathers before
I wanna mount when the bugle sounds and I hear the cannons' roar
I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
Well let me earn my spurs in the battle's blur where the day is lost or won
Well I'll wield my lance as the ponies dance and the blackguards fire their guns
With a sabre keen, and a saddle carbine and an army Remington
Where the hot lead screams with the cold, cold steel let me be a cav’lryman
So, I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
I wanna good steed under me like my forefathers before
I wanna mount when the bugle sounds and I hear the cannons' roar
I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
Well let 'em play their flutes and stirrup my boots and place them back in front
And I won’t be back on the rider-less black lest I'm finished in my hunt
Oh, I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
I wanna be in the cavalry, but I won't ride home no more
I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
I wanna good steed under me like my forefathers before
Courageous at first we took their worst, our positions we held stout
We clung to belief and we hung on the speech from our trusted leaders' mouths
Overwhelming odds and a hopeless cause and our cities overrun
There were them that said we was badly led and God were we outgunned
I lost count of the worthy mounts that from under me were cut
My favorite mare with her head in the air took the cannon in her gut
In the first two weeks on that bloody creek my brother lost his arm
Was only sixty days till all we prayed us to get us home unharmed
O for the day that we signed our names and the well that we were wished
The men's congrats and the pats on the backs and the ladies that we kissed
The band that played and the grande parade and the patriotic shouts
All faded fast, didn't even last till the uniforms wore out
And there were none to replace nor to help us face the winters cold and bleak
That chilled to the bone the pneumonia prone and froze our bootless feet
Then the typhoid hit with its fevered fits, TB and dysentery
That prove in the end to have killed more men than the vilest enemy
We were finally forced to feed on horse and carcass we could scrounge
When the wagons stopped and we'd burnt their crops to tarred and barren ground
With morale in doubt and our pride run out no honor did I see
All I seen were a thousand dreams piled dead in front of me
I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
I wanna be in the cavalry but I won't ride home no more...

I'm Russian. I know English at the level of recognition of certain words, and to write this comment, I use a translator.
I want to say that the song is really good. It creates a strange impression of some kind of "American History" in my head. There have been and are many bad things in the history of our states, it must be remembered, but there are also many good things - these are songs. It is a song that binds hearts, and a good one tells its own story, even if a person does not understand it because of the language barrier.
I thank you for your work, even though I found out about you just yesterday. I'm waiting for more Russian songs performed by you, and, of course, American ones, such as this one.
Greetings to all from Western Russia!
I pray for your victory in Ukraine

@@Bluesonofman It'll be his turn soon. Don't pray for victory for that is long past. Pray he won't have his brains splattered or guts exposed and goes home safe.
@@Bluesonofman The best way the Russians can achieve victory is through Putin's defeat.
If you go to Ukraine don't forget to bring sunflower seeds.
"I have memories of the final days before the collapse, hazy due to how young I was, but I have them. Though it was an uncertain time for the nation that stretched from coast to coast it was a land of advanced technology, a land of opportunity. But there was also those trying to get rid of that opportunity from what I heard from the elders. However, my dream is that by fighting in the Northern Union State Cavalry I can help restore that great Republic."
"You think that's the Lord Protector's End Goal?"
"I know it is." - One Cavalryman to another.
Спасибо, thank you for posting this song. I was a pilot in two cavalry regiments and cavalry troopers still honor the traditions of the old horse cavalry. Every cavalry trooper knows the poem, Fiddeler's Green. The last stanza reads,
And so when man and horse go down
Beneath a saber keen,
Or in a roaring charge of fierce melee
You stop a bullet clean,
And the hostiles come to get your scalp,
Just empty your canteen,
And put your pistol to your head
And go to Fiddlers’ Green.
Second Squadron, First United States Cavalry Regiment (Blackhawk) and Air Cav Troop, 11the Armored Cavalry Regiment (Blackhorse), though I never really wanted to be in the cavalry, my mount was an OH-6 and it was a hoot to fly (except for the getting shot at part). Allons.
Great to get an extended version! By the way, on my YT Music annual recap, your Hey You Falcons was my most listened to calm song.
I too love the Polish songs, I think a translated bij bolszewika would be up Alderon's alley.
@@progrocker2112 ooh, nice idea. But would it be "songs from around the world", or "second civil war?"
Thanks for doing both versions in this video I love it alot
💀
I'm guessing the increase in beat is a reference to the tactic of cavalry steadily picking up speed prior to the charge
Better then the original and any other cover!
I would love to have this on spotify!
Your music never ceases to amaze me mate
Great cover.
I love songs that tell you a story, this is the story of a young man who joined the military looking for the promise of adventure
But when he enters combat he realizes, all he wants is to go home now
You did both versions! Top job mate!
I don't really understand why this song hits me in the heart as hard as it does being a civilian and never seen war I don't really understand why it brings me to tears but I love this song you have done amazing
Just found your channel. Very impressed and I'm here to stay
Same here.
This is by far my favourite version of this song! Good job
I’d like to hear your version of the reprise “I wanna be in the cavalry” but you don’t exactly have to, it’d be nice though.
Have a good one
That would be the second half of the song
@@alderontyran oh you did? I hadn’t listened to it all when I typed it, thanks man
I love this song 100/100
I like the part where he mispoke. Ibpersonally like it (not sarcastic)
It gives off the vibe that the singer is a scared and disturbed solider singing it to himself for comfort
@@icomment9898 yes thank you, you put my mind to wordss.
Yeah and be nice 🙄
where exactly was that?
@@Rack47 4:40 where he says "When the typhoid hit with it- with it's fevered fits"
Wow this is great
And the seamless transition between both songs was amazing
Yo this be awesome, how have I never heard this?
This was amazing.
Dang that is a really good song!!!
nice version, I also recommend both of Corb Lund's versions of this
Very nice friend
Great video
I love this song
And A+
I've wanted to be a tanker since I was young it never happened
Jim Dinkins lives on
Could you share tabs with us?
Interesting...
4:42 omg literally me fr
Hello, can you do guitar chord for the reprise version?
I cant give you another like its at 666. I dont wanna break the funny number.
is this a confederate or union song?
Confederate cavalry
@@ArtemisWarriorGoddess original is union. reprise is confederate imo
In other words, yes.
Great success !
I'd say it's a song about the cavalry during the Napoleonic wars
4:40 lol
