rebecca lappa - valiant of vimy lyrics
verse:
my name is private pattison
i came across the ocean deep
to face the blood and machine gun fire
as i climbed the ridge so steep
ooooooh
verse:
the screams of shock were deafening
we’d tell tales to hide our fear
over burnt coffee and cigarette smoke
every night we’d sing with cheer
chorus:
lay me down beside my brothers
if the lord he calls me home
we will never be forgotten
even when we stand alone
may your courage and your bravery
always bring you safely back
warriors i salute you
go shake the devil off your back
verse:
t’was april 10 1917
our troupe was trapped by german barrage
good men were mowed down were they stood
i had to act or all was lost
oooooh
verse:
so i leapt from hole to hole
grenades flew from my hands
under the hale of heavy fire
i impaled the gunner by bayonet
chorus:
lay me down beside my brothers
if the lord he calls me home
we will never be forgotten
even when we stand alone
may your courage and your bravery
always bring you safely back
warriors i salute you
they lay me down beside my brothers
and the lord he calls me home
i will never be forgotten
even when i stood alone
though my courage and my bravery
didn’t bring me safely back
warriors i salute you
go shake the devil off your back
