Passchendaele |
Jack was born towards the end of the 19th century |
He married his sweetheart at the age of 23 |
Shortly before the birth of their first child he answered the call of duty |
He carried English bayonets, in an English way |
He smoked German cigarettes on Christmas Day |
He never made it past 25, he died at Passchendaele |
Fighting for the cause in the war to end all wars |
His son fell from a Spitfire in 1944 |
Well Daddy what did you do in the Great War? |
And what did we learn the second time round? |
Never again |
Never again |
He carried English bayonets, in an English way |
He smoked German cigarettes on Christmas Day |
He never made it past 25, he died at Passchendaele |
Fighting for the cause in the war to end all wars |
(Just keep on fighting, still we keep on fighting) |
(Just keep on fighting, still we keep on fighting) |
(Just keep on fighting, still we keep on fighting) |
He carried English bayonets, in an English way |
He smoked German cigarettes on Christmas Day |
He never made it past 25, he died at Passchendaele |
Fighting for the cause in the war to end all wars |
