Lyrics

[00:12.98] In May of 1941 the war had just begun1941
[00:16.92] The Germans had the biggest ship that had the biggest guns
[00:21.10] The Bismarck was the fastest ship that ever sailed the sea
[00:24.74] On her decks were guns as big as steers and shells as big as trees
[00:29.44] Out of the cold and foggy night came the British ship the Hood
[00:33.61] And every British seaman he knew and understood
[00:37.81] They had to sink the Bismarck the terror of the sea
[00:41.43] Stop those guns as big as steers and those shells as big as trees
[00:45.97] We'll find the German battleship that's makin' such a fuss
[00:49.93] We gotta sink the Bismarck 'cause the world depends on us
[00:53.97] Yeah hit the decks a runnin' boys and spin those guns around
[00:57.56] When we find the Bismarck we gotta cut her down
[01:06.04] The Hood found the Bismarck and on that fatal day
[01:10.26] The Bismarck started firing fifteen miles away
[01:14.40] We gotta sink the Bismarck was the battle sound
[01:18.43] But when the smoke had cleared away the mighty Hood went down
[01:22.67] For six long days and weary nights they tried to find her trail
[01:26.79] Churchill told the people put every ship asail
[01:30.88] Cause somewhere on that ocean I know she's gotta be
[01:35.01] We gotta sink the Bismarck to the bottom of the sea
[01:39.38] We'll find the German battleship that's makin' such a fuss
[01:43.36] We gotta sink the Bismarck 'cause the world depends on us
[01:47.04] Yeah hit the decks a runnin' boys and spin those guns around
[01:51.12] When we find the Bismarck we gotta cut her down
[01:59.14] The fog was gone the seventh day and they saw the morning sun
[02:03.22] Ten hours away from homeland the Bismarck made its run
[02:07.20] The Admiral of the British fleet said turn those bows around
[02:11.39] We found that German battleship and we're gonna cut her down
[02:18.28] The British guns were aimed and the shells were coming fast
[02:22.31] The first shell hit the Bismarck they knew she couldn't last
[02:26.47] That mighty German battleship is just a memory
[02:30.20] Sink the Bismarck was the battle cry that shook the seven seas“
[02:34.74] We found the German battleship 'twas makin' such a fuss
[02:38.76] We had to sink the Bismarck cause the world depends on us
[02:42.74] We hit the deck a runnin' and we and spun those guns around
[02:46.68] Yeah we found the mighty Bismarck and then we cut her down
[02:50.96] We found the German battleship 'twas makin' such a fuss
[02:54.85] We had to sink the Bismarck cause the world depends on us
[02:59.44] We hit the deck a runnin' and we and spun those guns around
[03:02.77] We found the mighty Bismarck and then we cut her down
