He said he wanted to be a good soldier

He said he wanted to fight - be a hero

Military costumes

In the magazines

Marching to the drums

Make real his wildest dreams

Its so dramatic-

We'll lead you to victory

Its so exciting

Don't want to turn back now

Forward into battle

Face the enemy

Young ambitious men go marching

Onto victory

So far away - fire away!

The blazing colours of battle attracted

He'll win a medal for his victory

Aiming at the front line

He is not afraid

Shooting at the men

Like ducks upon a range

He said he wanted to be a great soldier

He said he wanted to fight like his heroes

When you take the sunshine

You must take the rain

When you kill the wrong man

You must take the blame

So far away - fire away!
