Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Remember The Alamo by Johnny Cash from German to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
And a hundred and eighty were challenged by Travis to die
And a hundred and eighty were challenged by Travis to die
By the line that he drew with his sword when the battle was nigh
By the line that he drew with his sword when the battle was near
Any man that would fight to the death crossed over
Any man that would fight to the death crossed over
But him that would live, better fly
But him that would live, fly better
And over the line went a hundred and seventy nine
And over the line went a hundred and seventy nine
Hey Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below!
Hey Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below!
That men, wherever they go will remember the Alamo
That men, wherever they go, will remember the Alamo
Bowie lay dying, but his powder was ready and dry
Bowie lay dying, but his powder was ready and dry
Flat on his back, Bowie killed him a few in reply
Flat on his back, Bowie killed him a few in reply
And young David Crockett was singing and laughing
And young David Crockett was singing and laughing
With gallantry fears in his eyes
With gallantry fears in his eyes
For God and for freedom, a man more than willing to die
For God and for freedom, a man more than willing to die
Hey Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below!
Hey Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below!
That men, wherever they go will remember the Alamo
That men, wherever they go, will remember the Alamo
And then they sent a young scout from the battlements, bloody and loud
And then they sent a young scout from the battlements, bloody and loud
With the words of farewell from a garrison valiant and proud
With the words of farewell from a garrison valiant and proud
'Grieve not little darling, my dying, if Texas is sovereign and free
'Grieve not little darling, my dying, if Texas is sovereign and free
We'll never surrender and ever with liberty be'
We'll never surrender and always be with freedom
Hey Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below!
Hey Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below!
That men, wherever they go will remember the Alamo
That men, wherever they go, will remember the Alamo
