Sink the Bismark |
| In May of nineteen forty-one the war had just begun |
| The Germans had the biggest ship that had the biggest guns |
| The Bismark was the fastest ship that ever sailed the seas |
| On her deck were guns as big as steers and shells as big as trees |
| Out of the cold and foggy night came the British ship the Hood |
| And evry British seaman, he knew and understood |
| They had to sink the Bismark, the terror of the sea |
| Stop those guns as big as steers and those shells as big as trees |
| We’ll find that German battleship thats makin' such a fuss |
| We gotta sink the Bismark cause the world depends on us |
| Hit the decks a-runnin' boys and spin those guns around |
| When we find the Bismark we gotta cut her down |
| The Hood found the Bismark and on that fatal day |
| The Bismark started firin' fifteen miles away |
| We gotta sink the Bismark was the battle sound |
| But when the smoke had cleared away |
| The mighty Hood went down |
| For six long days and weary nights they tried to find her trail |
| Churchill told the people «Put ev’ry ship a-sail» |
| Cause somewhere on that ocean I know she’s gotta be |
| We gotta send the Bismark to the bottom of the sea |
| We’ll find that German battleship that’s makin' such a fuss |
| We gotta sink the Bismark cause the world depends on us |
| Hit the decks a-runnin' boys and spin those guns around |
| When we find the Bismark we gotta cut her down |
| The fog was gone the seventh day and they saw the mornin' sun |
| Ten hours away from homeland the Bismark made its' run |
| The admiral of the British fleet said «Turn those bows around» |
| We found that German battleship and we’re gonna cut her down |
| The British guns were aimed and the shells were comin' fast |
| The first shell hit the Bismark, they knew she couldn’t last |
| That mighty German battleship is just a memory |
| «Sink the Bismark» was the battle cry that shook the seven seas |
| We found that German battleship was makin' such a fuss |
| We had to sink the Bismark cause the world depends on us |
| We hit the decks a-runnin' and we spun those guns around |
| Yeah, we found the mighty Bismark and then we cut her down |
| We found that German battleship was makin' such a fuss |
| We had to sink the Bismark cause the world depends on us |
| We hit the decks a-runnin' and we spun those guns around |
| We found the mighty Bismark and then we cut her down |
