I'll sing you a song and it's not very long
It's about a young man who never did wrong
Suddenly he died one day
The reason why no one could say
He was tall and long and his arms were strong
And this is the strange part of my song
He was always well from foot to head
And then one day they found him dead
They found him dead so I've been told
And his eyes were closed and his heart was cold
Only one clue to why he died:
A bayonet sticking in his side
