Horse Soldier, Horse Soldier - Corb Lund (Cover) by Seth Staton Watkins
STREAM NOW: distrokid.com/hyperfollow/set...
MY LINKS: linktr.ee/Sethswatkinsmusic
Another classic by Corb Lund, this song traverses history to visit upon some of the most famous horsemen that ever dared to ride. From the Mongol steppe, to the plains of the American West, to the desert sands of Jerusalem, the song ties together the common struggle of these different peoples, in war and in death, as allies and as dire enemies. And in the end, their fate is the same, none of them a match for the destruction wrought by modern weapons. However, there may still be hope. Perhaps one day, the hooves of a thousand horses crossing the plain will be heard once again (preferably with peaceful intent).

Lyrics:
I'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a wretched Englishman
Routing Bonaparte at Waterloo
I'm a dragoon on a dun, I'm a Cossack on the run
I'm a horse soldier, timeless, through and through
Well I's with Custer and the 7th in ‘76 or ‘77
Scalped at Little Big Horn by the Sioux
And the tears and devastation of a once proud warrior nation
This I know ‘cause I was riding with them too
And I drank mare's blood on the run when I rode with the Great Khan
On the frozen Mongol steppe while at his height
And I's a White Guard, I's a Red Guard, I's the Tsar's own palace horse guard
When Romanov was murdered in the night
And I knew Saladin and rode his swift Arabians
Harassing doomed crusaders on their heavy drafts
And yet I rode the Percheron against the circling Saracen
Once again against myself was cast
Well I'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a wretched Englishman
Routing Bonaparte at Waterloo
I'm a dragoon on a dun, I'm a Cossack on the run
I'm a horse soldier, timeless, through and through
Well I've worn the Mounties' crimson, if you're silent and you'll listen
You'll know that it was with them that I stood
When Mayerthorpe, she cried, as her four horsemen died
Gunned down in scarlet, cold as blood
I's the 'fustest with the mostest' when I fought for Bedford Forrest
Suffered General Wilson's Union raid
And mine was not to reason why, mine was but to do and die
At Crimea with the charging light brigade
On hire from Swiss or Sweden, be me Christian, be me heathen
The devil to the sabre I shall put
With a crack flanking maneuver, I'm an uhlan alles uber
Striking terror into regiment of foot
Well I'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a wretched Englishman
Routing Bonaparte at Waterloo
I'm a dragoon on a dun, I'm a Cossack on the run
I'm a horse soldier, timeless, through and through
I knew my days were numbered when o'er the trenches lumbered
More modern machinations de la guerre
No match for rapid fire or the steel birds of the sky
With a final rear guard action I retreat
No match for barbered wire or the armored engines whine
Reluctant I retire and take my leave
Today I ride with special forces on those wily Afghan horses
Dostum's Northern Alliance give their thanks
And no matter defeat or victory, in battle it occurs to me
That we may see a swelling in our ranks
I'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a wretched Englishman
Routing Bonaparte at Waterloo
I'm a dragoon on a dun, I'm a Cossack on the run
I'm a horse soldier, timeless, through and through
I'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a wretched Englishman
Routing Bonaparte at Waterloo
I'm a dragoon on a dun, I'm a Cossack on the run
I'm a horse soldier, eternal, through and through

This is one of my all time favorite songs and this is magnificent cover. To me, Lund’s original has sort of a weary touch to it, as you’d expect from the deathless, eternal horse soldier. But this feels a lot more energetic, upbeat-the other side of a cavalryman’s existence I suppose.

"Polish lancers charging German tanks" is apocryphal. The Polish cavalry generally fought with carbines in WWII, and a Polish cavalry brigade had some 37mm antitank guns. The lances were ceremonial. A Polish cavalry unit did charge a German motorcycle recon unit, and unexpectedly found themselves facing the associated German recon armored cars (Schwere Panzerspahwagen).

Horse Soldier, Horse Soldier Lyrics I'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a wretched Englishman Routing Bonaparte at Waterloo I'm a dragoon on a dun, I'm a Cossack on the run I'm a horse soldier, timeless, through and through As with Custer and the 7th ‘76 or ‘77 Scalped at Little Big Horn by the Sioux And the pain and devastation of a once proud warrior nation This I know ‘cause I was riding with them too I drank mare's blood on the run when I rode with the Great Khan On the frozen Mongol steppe while at his height As a White Guard, As a Red Guard, As the Tsar's own palace horse guard When Romanov was murdered in the night And I knew Saladin and rode his swift Arabians Harassing doomed crusaders on their heavy drafts And yet I rode the Percheron against the circling Saracen and Once again against myself was cast I'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a wretched Englishman Routing Bonaparte at Waterloo I'm a dragoon on a dun, I'm a Cossack on the run I'm a horse soldier, timeless, through and through Well I've worn the Mounties' crimson, if you're silent and you'll listen You'll know that it was with them that I stood When Mayerthorpe, she cried, as her four horsemen died Gunned down in scarlet, cold as blood As the 'furstest with the mostest' when I fought for Bedford Forrest Suffered General Wilson's Union raid mine was not to reason why, mine was but to do or die At Crimea with the charging light brigade On hire from Swiss or Sweden, be me Christian, be me heathen The devil to the sabre I shall put With a crack flanking maneuver, I'm an uhlan alles uber Striking terror into regiment of foot I'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a wretched Englishman Routing Bonaparte at Waterloo I'm a dragoon on a dun, I'm a Cossack on the run I'm a horse soldier, timeless, through and through I knew my days were numbered when o'er the trenches lumbered More modern machinations de la guerre No match for rapid fire or the steel birds of the sky With a final rear guard action I retreat No match for tangled wire or the armored engines whine Reluctant I retire and take my leave Today I ride with special forces on those wily Afghan horses Dostum's Northern Alliance give their thanks no matter defeat or victory, in battle it occurs to me That we may see a swelling in our ranks I'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a wretched Englishman Routing Bonaparte at Waterloo I'm a dragoon on a dun, I'm a Cossack on the run I'm a horse soldier, timeless, through and through I'm a horse soldier, eternal, through and through

This came out the day I made the horse detachment for my Cavalry Regiment! I now get to practice being an actual horse soldier for the Army. 11th ACR, Alons!

My father was with the 1st Cavalry Division in Vietnam, I think he's going to like this song.

Only nit pick I have with this is I thought the last bit was too quick and should’ve been dragged out a bit more but still liked the song
