[Verse 1]
He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door

[Chorus]
What a lucky man he was[x2]

[Verse 2]
White lace and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was laid

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
He went to fight wars
For his country and his king
Of his honor and his glory
The people would sing

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
A bullet had found him
His blood ran as he cried
No money could save him
So he laid down and he died
[Chorus]
