I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
I want a good steed under me like my forefathers before
And I want a good mount when the bugle sounds and I hear the cannons roar
I wanna be in the cavalry if I must go off to war
I want a horse and a volunteer force that's riding forth at dawn
Please save for me some gallantry that will echo when I'm gone
And I beg of you, serge, let me lead the charge when the battle lines have drawn
And let me at least leave a good hoof beat that I'll remember loud and long
I ain't not a good foot soldier, mate, I'd be sour and slow at march
And I'd be sick on a navy ship and the sea would leave me parched
But I'll be first in line if you let me ride, by God, you'll see my starch
Low back o'er the heath of the laurel reef, underneath that victory arch
[Fm] I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
I want a good steed under [Eb] me like my [E] forefathers [Gm] before
[D] And I want a good mount when the [N] bugle sounds and I hear the cannons roar
I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
Let me earn my spurs in the battle's blur when the day is lost or won
And I'll wield my lances before you dance in the black arch by the guns
And I'll save our keen and a saddle carpeen and an army remington
Where the hot blood screams and the cold cold steel, let me be a cavalryman
I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
I want a good steed under me like my forefathers before
And I want a good mount when the bugle sounds and I hear the cannons roar
[Ab] I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me [N] off to war
Let them play their flutes and stir up my boots and place them back to front
For I won't be back on a riderless black and I'm finished in my hunt
I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war
I wanna be in the cavalry but I won't ride home no more
I want a good steed under me like my forefathers before
And I want a good mount when the bugle sounds and I hear the cannons roar
I wanna be in the cavalry if I must go off to war
I want a horse and a volunteer force that's riding forth at dawn
Please save for me some gallantry that will echo when I'm gone
And I beg of you, serge, let me lead the charge when the battle lines have drawn
And let me at least leave a good hoof beat that I'll remember loud and long

[Fm] I wanna be in the cavalry if they send me off to war

I wanna be in the cavalry but I won't ride home no more
