Текст песни Chain of Command - Chris de Burgh
Here
lies
poor
John,
John
from
Aberdeen,
He
gave
his
life
for
King
and
Country,
Only
seventeen;
Well
the
Generals
sat
down
with
their
Port
and
a
bottle
of
wine,
"We
have
a
problem
here
right
now,
And
we're
running
out
of
time,
This
madman
of
a
Leader
keeps
changing
our
battle
plans,
And
the
King
said
he
wants
no
more
of
this
troublesome
man";
So
they
called
for
the
Captain
and
told
him,
"We
need
a
volunteer;
our
Leader
is
a
traitor,
And
he
must
be
gone
from
here;
A
simple
execution,
but
nothing
can
be
seen."
So
they
gave
the
job
to
John
from
Aberdeen;
And
he
said,
"Oh
no,
it
must
be
done,
Justice
coming
from
the
barrel
fo
a
gun;
Oh
no
what
can
I
do,
someone
has
to
pull
the
trigger,
Blame
it
on
the
Chain
of
Command,
I
will
have
to
pull
the
trigger,
Blame
it
on
the
Chain
of
Comman!"
Right
then
at
the
killing
poor
John
was
taken
by
surprise,
And
they
told
him
in
prison
"Your
story
is
a
pack
of
lies!"
And
the
General
said
in
the
Courtroom,
"For
this
murder
you
will
pay,
You'll
be
shot
at
dawn,
do
you
have
anything
to
say?"
And
John
said
"I
was
only
following
orders,
And
I
knew
that
it
was
wrong,
But
what
else
could
I
do?
And
now
my
life
has
gone."
Oh
no,
what
has
he
done,
He
killed
a
man
with
a
bullet
from
a
gun,
Oh
no,
what
could
he
do,
someone
had
to
pull
the
trigger,
Blame
it
on
the
Chain
of
Command;
Oh
no,
it
has
been
done,
Justice
coming
from
the
barrel
of
a
gun,
Oh
no,
what
could
he
do?
Someone
had
to
pull
the
trigger,
Blame
it
on
the
Chain
of
Command!
Someone
had
to
pull
the
trigger,
Blame
it
on
the
Chain
of
Command!"
The
Chain
of
Command,
The
Chain
of
Command,
The
Chain
of
Command.
