He set out to conquer the world
Had him a friend and had him a man
Got him an army and he did begin
There's never been a man alive
who lived his life and died fully satisfied
You fight, you'll fight, I'll fight too
Soon come a donkey to love,
He was to follow Napoleon.
There's never been a man alive
Living life and die fully satisfied
You fight, you'll fight, I'll fight me
Today we hear, we don't see, we believe
Call my name, I am ready to leave
Six weeks training, six weeks preparing
Five days of seeing who shoots at me
Fight for freedom, boy, all right then
Black man is negro, yellow is not
There's never been a man alive
Living life and dying to be satisfied
You've got yours and that's
You fight, you'll fight, I'll fight me
You fight, you'll fight, I'll fight me
