elp - lucky man lyrics

(lake)
he had white horses
and ladies by the score
all dressed in satin
and waiting by the door

oooh, what a lucky man he was

white lace and feathers
they made up his bed
a gold covered mattress
on which he was laid

he went to fight wars
for his country and his king
of his honor and his glory
the people would sing

a bullet had found him
his blood ran as he cried
no money could save him
so he laid down and he died
