He had white horses, and ladies by the score
All dressed in satin, waiting by the door
**Chorus**
ooh, what a lucky man he was,
ooh, what a lucky man he was.
White lace and feathers, they made up his bed
Agold-covered matress, on which he was laid
**Chorus**
He went to fight wars, for his country and his king
for his honor and his glory, the people, they would sing
**Chorus**
A bullet had found him, his blood ran as he cried
no money could save him, so he laid down and he died
**Chorus**
**Chorus**
