Текст (слова) песни: Roger Waters - The Ballad Of Bill Hubbard
[Alf Razzell:] "Two things that have haunted me most are the days when I had to collect the paybooks; and when I left Bill Hubbard in no-man`s-land. I was picked up and taken into their trench. And I`d no sooner taken two or three steps down the trench when I heard a call, `Hello Razz, I`m glad to see you. This is my second night here,` and he said `I`m feeling bad,` and it was Bill Hubbard, one of the men we`d trained in England, one of the original battalion. I had a look at his wound; rolled him over. I could see it was probably a fatal wound. You could imagine what pain he was in, he was dripping with sweat; and after I`d gone about three shellholes, traversed that, had it been...had there been a path or a road I could have done better. He pummelled me, `Put me down, put me down, I`d rather die, I`d rather die, put me down.` I was hoping he would faint. He said `I can`t go any further, let me die.` I said `If I leave you here Bill you won`t be found, let`s have another go.` He said `All right then.` And the same thing happened. he couldn`t stand it any more, and I had to leave him there, in no-man`s-land."
