The Trooper

Lyrics

You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no turning back

You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack

Who's gna see Iron Maiden in San Bernardino? :D
First song I learned to play all the way through on guitar was phantom of the opera by iron maiden
iron maiden f**kin kicks a** man that's it !
Funny how almost all the 'similar' tracks listed by pandora are Metallica. I love both iron maiden and Metallica.
Steve and adrian equal BEAST !!!!

The Trooper is written about the Crimean war. Just throwing that out there.
Can't think of the 80s without thinking of this band.
The maiden of iron gave birth to Judas priest's 4 children (the big4)
Love this sh.t! Never will I get tired of the Maiden!! Rock out!!!!!
Long live iron maiden in the harts & the minds & the souls who love them.666
MAIDEN!!!!!
Oh this song is freakin' crazy speedy-like. I luv Iron Maiden.
Did anyone ever play carmageddon the racing game on win 95 this song was on it so f**kin cool
If you don't like this song, you simply can't be a classic rock fan.

Classic opening riff
Routtj you retarted if you think Anthrax is not a good band
Absolutely thrilling!
edstrasser
@routtj LOL
@sallyahrk: Korn, Anthrax, Def Leppard, and Bon Jovi are not good bands. Just saying.
My mother hates this song, and aces high, and... err... anything by any good bands (metallica, megadeth, disturbed, iron maiden, black sabbeth, korn, slayer, antrax, def leppard, bon jovi.... the list goes on and on)
Could be some of the best lyrics ever written! This one is amazing live!
LOL@ D.Rice. This track is the epitomy of awesomeness. Too bad no band will ever compare to Maiden.

I remember I almost cried when Bruce left them back in the 90s. Those were some sad days. Knew he couldn't stay away forever :)
Or Wasted Years, Or...oh forget it. We all know they're epic.
Quite possibly my favorite Maiden Song, this or Aces High.

I BLEW THE TURBO IN MY TRANS AM WITH THIS SONG.
This song makes you wanna slap a bulldog!
ROCK ON!!!

The Trooper!
A metal masterpiece. Powerful vocals and drumming along with a great melody.
That one song they did about John Davidson was AWESOME!!!!! ! ! 1 1 1 o n e
Nearly perfect album too...and I think more songs than not, in the earlier years, were based on some story, myth, historical event.
uhmm i dont like iron maiden much but this song kick a**
patrick much of maiden's work is based on classic literatue

such as rhyme of the ancient mariner, trooper, phamton of the opera, and others
greatest maiden song imo
brian8024
Perfection.

MAIDEN,EDDIE , P U R E KICK A**!!!!
