Wolfpack |
|
|
|
To their own shore came the world war |
|
Gleaves and Ingham |
|
Leading the bury west |
|
|
|
Took the short way in |
|
The long route back convoy 92 |
|
Bury Gleaves and Ingham leading |
|
Tankers to the west |
|
And upon the north Atlantic |
|
Lies the silence of the seas |
|
On a quietst night in the darkest hour |
|
The kriegsmarine appear |
|
|
|
Above the surface it seems quiet and calm |
|
Deep down below the wolfpack lurks |
|
|
|
[Chorus:] |
|
To their own shore came the world war |
|
Gleaves and Ingham |
|
Leading the bury west |
|
In their own track came the wolfpack |
|
Gleaves led the conwoy |
|
Into the hornets nest |
|
|
|
At the crack of dawn the second day |
|
Bury stands in flames |
|
Half the convoy sunk or disabled |
|
Heading back to shore |
|
But below the north Atlantic |
|
On the bottom of the sea |
|
On the second night in the darkest hour |
|
The kriegsmarine return |
|
|
|
The wolfpack surface for a second time |
|
To make the convoy face it's fate |
|
|
|
[Chorus] |
|
|
|
Under fire under water |
|
May 42 when |
|
Bury did fail the test |
|
To their own shore came the world war |
|
Gleaves and the Ingham |
|
Leading them into death |
|
|
|
569 makes the contact and lead them |
|
U-94 scores a kill in the dark |
|
124 sinking 4 in 2 approaches |
|
406 suffers failure on launch [x2] |
|
|
|
In their own track came the wolfpack |
|
Gleaves led the conwoy |
|
Into the hornets nest |
|
|
|
To their own shore came the world war |
|
Gleaves and Ingham |
|
Leading the bury west |
|
In their own track came the wolfpack |
|
Gleaves led the conwoy |
|
Into the hornets nest |
|
|
|
Under fire under water |
|
May 42 when |
|
Bury did fail the test |
|
To their own shore came the world war |
|
Gleaves and the Ingham |
|
Leading them into death |
