lyrics

A soldier run across the field
Flop! – and he lost his cigarettes.
Slowly now crowl, my soldier,
Back to get the cigarettes.

The soldier’s best friend
Is the black crow
True and tame
Postal bird

A dzhigit run across the field
Flop! – and he lost his cigarettes.
Slowly now crowl, my dzhigit,
Back to get the cigarettes.

The dzhigit’s best friend
Is the black crow
True and tame
Postal bird
