In May of 1941 the war had just begun |
|
The Germans had the biggest ship that had the biggest guns |
|
The Bismarck was the fastest ship that ever sailed the sea |
|
On her decks 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 every British seaman he knew and understood |
|
They had to sink the Bismarck the terror of the sea |
|
Stop those guns as big as steers and those shells as big as trees |
|
We'll find the German battleship that's makin' such a fuss |
|
We gotta sink the Bismarck 'cause the world depends on us |
|
Yeah hit the decks a runnin' boys and spin those guns around |
|
When we find the Bismarck we gotta cut her down |
|
The Hood found the Bismarck and on that fatal day |
|
The Bismarck started firing fifteen miles away |
|
We gotta sink the Bismarck 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 every ship asail |
|
Cause somewhere on that ocean I know she's gotta be |
|
We gotta sink the Bismarck to the bottom of the sea |
|
We'll find the German battleship that's makin' such a fuss |
|
We gotta sink the Bismarck 'cause the world depends on us |
|
Yeah hit the decks a runnin' boys and spin those guns around |
|
When we find the Bismarck we gotta cut her down |
|
The fog was gone the seventh day and they saw the morning sun |
|
Ten hours away from homeland the Bismarck 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 coming fast |
|
The first shell hit the Bismarck they knew she couldn't last |
|
That mighty German battleship is just a memory |
|
Sink the Bismarck was the battle cry that shook the seven seas |
|
We found the German battleship 'twas makin' such a fuss |
|
We had to sink the Bismarck cause the world depends on us |
|
We hit the deck a runnin' and we and spun those guns around |
|
Yeah we found the mighty Bismarck and then we cut her down |
|
We found the German battleship 'twas makin' such a fuss |
|
We had to sink the Bismarck cause the world depends on us |
|
We hit the deck a runnin' and we and spun those guns around |
|
We found the mighty Bismarck and then we cut her down |
