The Price Of A Mile |
| Throw your soldiers into positions |
| Once there is no escape |
| And they will prefer death to flight |
| Hear the sound of the machine gun |
| Hear it echo in the night |
| Mortars firing, rains the scene |
| Scars the fields that once were green |
| It’s a stalemate at the front line |
| Where the soldiers rest in mud |
| Roads and houses, all is gone |
| There’s no glory to be won |
| Know that many men will suffer |
| Know that many men will die |
| Half a million lives at stake |
| Ask the fields of Passchendaele |
| And as night falls the general calls |
| And the battle carries on and on |
| What is the purpose of it all? |
| What’s the price of a mile? |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army on the march |
| Long way from home |
| Paying the price in young mens lives |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army in despair |
| Knee-deep in mud |
| Stuck in the trench with no way out |
| Thousands of machine guns |
| Kept on firing through the night |
| Mortars placed and wreck the scene |
| Guns the fields that once were green |
| Still a deadlock at the front line |
| Where the soldiers die in mud |
| Roads and houses since long gone |
| Still no glory has been won |
| Know that many men has suffered |
| Know that many men has died |
| Six miles of ground has been won |
| Half a million men are gone |
| And as the men crawled the general called |
| And the killing carried on and on |
| What was the purpose of it all? |
| What’s the price of a mile? |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army on the march |
| Long way from home |
| Paying the price in young mens lives |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army in despair |
| Knee-deep in mud |
| Stuck in the trench with no way out |
| Young men are dying |
| They pay the price |
| Oh how they suffer |
| So tell me, what’s the price of a mile? |
| That’s the price of a mile! |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army on the march |
| Long way from home |
| Paying the price in young mens lives |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army in despair |
| Knee-deep in mud |
| Stuck in the trench with no way out |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army on the march |
| Long way from home |
| Paying the price in young mens lives |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army in despair |
| Knee-deep in mud |
| Stuck in the trench with no way out |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army on the march |
| Long way from home |
| Paying the price in young mens lives |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army in despair |
| Knee-deep in mud |
| Stuck in the trench with no way out |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army on the march |
| Long way from home |
| Paying the price in young mens lives |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army in despair |
| Knee-deep in mud |
| Stuck in the trench with no way out |
| Thousands of feet march to the beat |
| It’s an army on the march |
| Long way from home |
| Paying the price in young mens lives |
