Looking for a military-type song title

I'm lookin for an old military marching-type song what's lyrics contains the following or similar expressions:

Refraint:

1. "Behind the (taxes? saxons?) I ('ll? 've? ). find (found?) you"
2. " .... in your(?) way"
3. "Behind the ... I ... find you"
4. And cannot (couldn't?) get away",
5. ....
6. "(S?)he died early in the war,"
(Choir: war!)
7. "Behind the .. etc."
8. "And ... "

Please, if anyone knows the lyrics and music writer, the performer(s) and a link to lyrics, be so kind to share it.

mmmhhh..., maybe: Sunday bloody sunday by U2

But I think the lyric fragments ar different from the U2 Lyrics.

How old is the song you are looking for?

I don't know exactly. But this is not a rock song, rather a chanson or something more classical, with trompets or horns in the background. I heard it on a Hungarian radio in the eighties; so I think if in the other side of the iron curtain it was played, then had to be quite popular or quite known in England. But I couldn't find anything with google or similar methods,

My suggestion is a song from America's Civil War period (circa 1861) called "John Brown's Body".
See the attached link for more information.

No ... the tune is a bit similar but not by a long chalk the same (probably, if it was accelerated to twice as much its tempo now ...), but the lyrics is totally different.

Parts of the song can be heard in Star Trek Voyager ep 'Virtuoso', in the beginning and in the end.

Now I can find not only the song, but the version and performer also. It's Elvis Presley and the song is "The Yellow Rose of Texas / The Eyes of Texas".
