Woman Across the River - Brander/Larsen

Across the river a good woman cried All because a foolish man had lied She gave up all she had to show how much she cared But the man told so many lies, now another man is over there That woman across the river Sweet woman across the river, she was mine Word got around that he had jilted her And men came running came running from near and far That the man, he's got to know, he's a lucky so and so That woman across the river I met her one day, about a week ago She said, "I don't even want to talk to you 'Cause I don't love you any more" That woman across the river

I'm a soldier of freedom in the army of the man Ah we are the chosen, we're the partisan alright Well 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 Now I'm a soldier of fortune, I'm a dog of war And we don't give a damn who the killing is for Yeah 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 Oh nothing gonna stop them as the day follows the night Right become a wrong, the left become 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 Gonna ride across the river deep and wide Ride across the river to the other side
