I'm a soldier of freedom in the army of man
We are the chosen, we're the partisan
The cause it is noble and the cause it is just
We are ready to pay with our lives if we must
Gonna ride across the river deep and wide
Ride across the river to the other side
I'm a soldier of fortune, I'm a dog of war
And we don't give a damn who the killing is for
It's the same old story with a different name
Death or glory, it's the killing game
Gonna ride across the river deep and wide
Ride across the river to the other side
Nothing gonna stop them as the day follows the night
Right becomes wrong, the left becomes the right
And they sing as they march with their flags unfurled
Today in the mountains, tomorrow the world
Gonna ride across the river deep and wide
Ride across the river to the other side
Dire Straits is a British rock band formed in 1977 by Mark Knopfler (guitar and vocals), John Illsley (bass) and Pick Withers (drums). Their sound, characterized by clean acoustic and electric guitars, introspective lyrics and minimalist arrangements, stood out from the musical landscape dominated by punk and stadium rock. Their self-titled debut album of 1978, initially considered a flop, achieved unexpected success thanks to the single "Sultans of Swing", which established them as one of the most influential bands of the 1980s. Among their most notable successes are also "Romeo and Juliet", "Money for Nothing" and "Walk of Life". Dire Straits has sold over 120 million records worldwide, winning numerous Grammy Awards.
