Always and forever a 19D Cavalry Scout

My drill Sargent used to play this before lights out 😂

I disliked Corb lund until 2024 know hes my dude. the dude is wicked smart.
im from alberta

Greatx2 grandfather was a Lieutenant in the 9th light horse AIF charged in ww1 took 200 prisoners

3 months Tango is getting heavy infantry is not a joke🇿🇼🇧🇼

Yeah but like fantasizing about fighting in the civil war is kind of weird isn't it

Many yearn to be knights, many yearn to a pirate and yet some: want to CAVALRYMEN!

Battlefield 1 head ahh

All im going to say, having a drum would be a nightmare for the cavalry.

Welcome to Fiddlers Green have a drink its on the house

Saw you at the Colombia Missouri concert with Colter Wall. This song made me an instant fan.

I'm singing this to the tune of sex pistols. Iiiiiiiiiii wanna beeeeeee, in the cavalryyyyy

First in! Last Out! Hooah

so many people not realizing this is an anti war song when given the context of the reprise is so american

A "trained "... "American Soldier", ... is a "Soldier/Warrior/AMERICAN !. .. Regardless of "Corps" or "Branch". .. Meh! "The U.S.M.C." is cute, but not cute enough to matter, in reality. ..

Excellent song

I showed this song to my GF, who used to do civil war reenactment. She's sure it's a period song!

I feel like there's something metatextual about the fact Lund chose to use the melody of Stan Roger's "The Idiot" for this song, but I can't quite put my finger on it...

The Cavalry stops the Queen of Battle from getting raped

enjoyed this last night in Belfast! mighty show

Love it so 🤓 smart!!

Love I'm so much 😂❤

I am a retired Cavalry men. 19D Cav Scout

The wordsmith from "humans for hire" sent me here

Would it be inappropriate to start a slow clap?

POV I LOVED it

Is it “ride home no more” or “write home no more” ?

So does the story go like
The idiot (Moves to the west and gets a workers life)
I wanna be in the cavalry (Doesn't like the workers life and joins the cavalry)
I wanna be in the cavalry reprise (Regrets joining the cavalry)

Horses are only hood when medium rare off the grill.

Anyway, I have not figured out how to drop from a C-130 with a horse anyway.

Airborne!

I still listen to this on a regular basis since I was introduced to it while in the Army. Made me want to go Cav.

Being in the cavalry would be cool. But i guess thst makes me "an idiot I suppose"

If you ain’t cav, you ain’t 💩

It sounds crazy but I miss my fellow soldiers in Iraq as fucked up as that war was. I miss the war too.

Socks I don't like this

Respect for all the calvarymen out there. Your MOS will always be remembered

Excellent!

I want a cavalry just like that. Same shape and everything. This is such an amazing song.
