| [00:01.421] | Well mister I just overheard you talking through your drink |
| [00:04.428] | How the Russians lie like rugs how they've pushed us to the brink |
| [00:07.676] | Now sit right here beside me I've an old man's tale to tell |
| [00:12.426] | How Yanks and Reds were friends once...at the Elbe |
| [00:19.927] | My name is Joe Polowski I hitched up in '41 |
| [00:23.676] | Left my sweetheart in Chicago and I learned to fire a gun |
| [00:27.669] | The fog in the Ardennes so thick you could not see your nose |
| [00:31.421] | Nor the ghosts in the Belgian wood advancing through the snow |
| [00:36.578] | We left our dead behind us and we scaled the Dragon's Teeth |
| [00:41.828] | With screaming mimis overhead not one of us could sleep |
| [00:45.832] | Some fell to the enemy some fell to the creeping cold |
| [00:49.580] | And I killed a German sniper who was not fourteen years old |
| [00:54.585] | When a soldier takes a hit my friend it ain't like Hollywood |
| [00:58.337] | Bone and guts go flying and everywhere there's blood |
| [01:01.831] | For a moment he is mystified there must be some mistake |
| [01:05.333] | As it all drains out in a crimson lake |
| [01:09.085] | Then April turned the weather and likewise the tide of war |
| [01:13.079] | As haggard hungry Germans surrendered by the score |
| [01:16.832] | And thank God for the Russians who took the battle's brunt |
| [01:20.580] | And broke the back of the Wermacht along the Eastern Front |
| [01:25.338] | Then we saw a burst of lilacs and the river swift and wide |
| [01:28.579] | And rest and welcome waiting for us on the other side |
| [01:32.331] | And Yanks and Reds laughed out loud to be alive at the Elbe |
| [01:40.583] | We caught the glint of water and upon the distant shore |
| [01:43.580] | Men and trucks and horses not German and not ours |
| [01:47.830] | No bridge to cross but at the dock a boat securely tied |
| [01:51.336] | We blew the chain and rowed like demons for the other side |
| [01:55.338] | But when we stepped up on the land oh Jesus what a sight |
| [01:59.831] | Blackened bodies of civilians like driftwood piled high |
| [02:03.583] | Cut down by stray artillery — what the hell is it all for |
| [02:07.589] | We knelt and cursed the cruelty and madness men call war |
| [02:12.580] | Three Russians approached us, we shook hands and then embraced |
| [02:15.834] | Stalingrad had traced its lines of sadness on their face |
| [02:19.835] | Upon that field of corpses these weary happy men |
| [02:23.087] | Swore an oath that it must never happen again |
| [02:26.582] | And then we wept and cheered and spoke in languages unknown |
| [02:30.334] | They poured us Russian vodka by God we drank it down |
| [02:34.082] | We sang "The Volga Boatman" they sang "Tavern in the Town" |
| [02:37.834] | And I never kissed so many men as on that afternoon |
| [02:42.839] | When we saw a burst of lilacs and the river swift and wide |
| [02:46.328] | And rest and welcome waiting for us on the other side |
| [02:50.081] | And Yanks and Reds laughed out loud to be alive at the Elbe |
| [03:00.655] | But no sooner were we stateside than the Cold War headlines read |
| [03:04.647] | Commies in the unions commies under every bed |
| [03:08.154] | Hurrah the Nazi devil's down long live the devil Red |
| [03:11.649] | And not one word about the oath we swore amongst the dead |
| [03:16.906] | There are kids today who'll tell you we fought Russia in the war |
| [03:20.159] | There are armchair heroes set to settle some old score |
| [03:23.907] | There are profiteers and pushers primed to send young men once more |
| [03:27.659] | To blow themselves to glory on some godforsaken shore |
| [03:32.651] | So drape my coffin with the flag of the good old USA |
| [03:36.157] | Let Yanks in army khaki and Reds in Russian gray |
| [03:39.905] | Lower me so gently into the German clay |
| [03:43.657] | And speak again the oath we swore that day |
| [03:47.152] | When we saw a burst of lilacs and the river swift and wide |
| [03:51.158] | And rest and welcome waiting for us on the other side |
| [03:54.407] | And Yanks and Reds laughed out loud to be alive at the Elbe |
| [04:01.652] | At the Elbe |
| [04:05.160] | At the Elbe |
| [00:01.421] | Well mister I just overheard you talking through your drink |
