That's the Sound of the Men, Fighting in Chain Mail

(by Gorlan of the Red Lands, 1999)
(Tune: "Chain Gang" by Sam Cooke)

    Chorus:
      Oooh!, Ouch!, Oooh!, Ouch!
      Oooh!, Ouch!, Oooh!, Ouch!
      Well don't you know
      That's the sound of the men,
      Fighting in chain-mail
      That's the sound of the men
      Fighting in chain-mail

    All day long they fight so hard
    And take bruises,
    The pain they disregard.
    It is amazing
    That this they call fun
    They're all purple
    When the day is done.

    Chorus:

    "Plate is for Sissies!" you can hear them say
    At the campfires
    At the end of the day
    Chain is much more macho
    "It make you look good, don't you know"
    It sounds to me that, they've taken
    Too many head blows.

    Chorus:

    I think I'll stay, with my plate mail
    I don't like purple
    On my arms, legs or tail
    Yes it is true
    I may not run as fast
    But after a day of fighting,
    I can still make the night last

    Chorus:


History. The Story Behind this Song

 No real story behind this song. The chorus came to mind while hearing the original song on the radio.
I liked it.
