celtae - merchant marine lyrics

[chorus]
we’re the merchant marine
and we sail across the sea
as the u+boat’s torpedoes hunt for hulls that they can breach
we will brave the rugged ocean
blistering winds test our devotion
but we’ll keep steaming ’til our cargo’s on the beach

[verse 1]
we arrived in halifax
with all we owned upon our backs
for we knew a brave man’s duty was to labor for the fight
but it takes more than bravery
to survive k!llers you can’t see
those b+st+rd wolfpacks hunt by day and strike by night

[verse 2]
we have barely any weapons
everyday our lives are threatened
and if we die the navy sends no pension to our wives
winter on the north atlantic
is h+llish, cold, and frantic
for the sea alone is a challenge to survive

[chorus]
we’re the merchant marine
and we sail across the sea
as the u+boat’s torpedoes hunt for holes that they can breach
we will brave the rugged ocean
blistering winds test our devotion
but we’ll keep steaming ’til our cargo’s on the beach
[verse 3]
in the war of hitler’s visions
the allies would get no provisions
total war was his decision, sinking ships not built to fight
the finest liners of our day
are now painted battle grey
but the two small guns they mounted cause no fright

[verse 4]
now it’s true we had protection
two destroyers in our section
three frigates, two corvettes, to shepherd fifty through the waves
one destroyer’s now debris
both corvettes lost under the sea
and our sister ship’s an underwater grave

[verse 5]
now we mourn our fallen brothers
pray to god they’ll be no others
blown to bits by diving demons deep below
for the carnage and the thunder
that sucked those good boys under
happens daily and we’ve three more days to go
[chorus]
we’re the merchant marine
and we sail across the sea
as the u+boat’s torpedoes hunt for holes that they can breach
we will brave the rugged ocean
blistering winds test our devotion
but we’ll keep steaming ’til our cargo’s on the beach

[outro]
we’re the merchant marine
and we sail across the sea
as the u+boat’s torpedoes hunt for holes that they can breach
we will brave the rugged ocean
blistering winds test our devotion
but we’ll keep steaming ’til our cargo’s on the beach
yes, we’ll keep steaming ’til our cargo’s on the beach
