I rode through the fields leading down to the battle
My spears glistened gold in the hot morning sun
They took all the loot and said I did but little
They left me with naught, I say pox on the Hun
I say pox (I say pox, I say pox) on the Hun
Everybody knows the reason for their plight
When Visigoths appeared those Huns needed all my might
The Goth horsemen charged me; my elephants, they got their hide
To aid the struggling Huns I stepped up to their side
I cut through the foe, tore Visigoths asunder
My spears glistened red - Gothic blood in the sun
The Huns took the loot and said I get no plunder
They left me with naught, I say pox on the Hun
I say pox (I say pox, I say pox) on the Hun
Come take a glass of wine - I'll tell you what I know
We'll talk about the battle and the allies we don't owe
I'll illustrate, a nomad that I can't trust no more
The game is nearly up, the Hun is at the door
I rode through the fields, carved Visigoths asunder
My spears gleamed like fire in the hot morning sun
They took all the loot and said I get no plunder
They left me with naught, I say pox on the Hun
You know I rode through the fields, Armoricans defied me
My spears were pressed hard but we caused them to run
The Huns claimed the win and said I get no glory
They left me with naught, I say pox on the Hun
I say pox (I say pox, I say pox) on the Hun
