battlegrave - the anzacs lyrics

Loading...

when britain declares war on them
we respond
as do we
to defend the old country

to the motherland we will pledge
our last man
our everything
down to our final schilling

adventure appeals to them
so they sign
the dotted line
blind to the horror that awaits

with nz boys they’re on to ships
and sail to
the pyramids
they’re anointed the anzacs

first
-ssignment
was
to tackle
the turks in gallipoli

land
in a cove
in april
1915

with no idea of
the immediate
danger that they’re in

through th-rny scrub
up rocky heights
ambush begins

over
the coming days
kilometres
of trenches made
sniper fire
and sh-lling
denying them
from advancing

bullets whistle past their ears now

withdraw our troops
from the fields
exit from gallipoli
many men not coming home

even more now lay in beds
wounded, shattered
broken men
the fit move on to fight once more

in palestine, deployed again
the western front
as well in france
to defeat the german force

during day and night they fought
to preserve
our way of life
to these brave men we owe it all

invoke their spirit

they went to war – to defend us
they went to war – for our freedom
they went to war – and gave their own lives
they went to war – we will remember them

first
-ssignment
was
to tackle
turks in gallipoli

land
in a cove
in april
1915

no idea of
the immediate
danger they’re in

through th-rny scrub
up rocky heights
ambush begins

the anzac spirit lives on in us
