Cossacks Must Ride
Music: Russian Folksong
English lyrics: M Mallows
Stars above us, the sand below
Wind behind to make us go
Women are waiting, there at the show
In the windows welcome lanterns glow
Hey, Hey, Hey
The Cossack must go riding
The northern wind behind him
To speed him ever more
To adventure he's waiting for
The Cossack must go riding
The northern wind behind him
To speed him ever more
To adventure he's waiting for
Mountain pathway and silver streams
Take him to his Cossack dreams
Earth the drum and thunder cross the plain
and the Cossacks ride the night again
Hey, Hey, Hey
The Cossack must go riding
The northern wind behind him
To speed him ever more
To adventure he's waiting for
The Cossack must go riding
The northern wind behind him
To speed him ever more
To adventure he's waiting for
Come tomorrow and ride the sand
On the roads where Cossacks ran
Cross the plains
From mountains to the sea
To the Cossack
All the world is free!
Hey, Hey, Hey
The Cossack must go riding
The northern wind behind him
To speed him ever more
To adventure he's waiting for
The Cossack must go riding
The northern wind behind him
To speed him ever more
To adventure he's waiting for
Cossacks Must Ride
