Lyrics
[Verse 1]
War is coming swiftly
The border's closing in
We're a company of soldiers
Mere forty rifles strong
[Verse 2]
All alone!
Stand alone!
[Verse 3]
Ardenner ground is burning
And Rommel is at hand
As the Blitzkrieg's pushing harder
The war is all around
[Verse 4]
All around!
Hold your ground!
[Verse 5]
Fight for eighteen days of battles
No odds are on our side
Few will fight for all until the bullets are gone
[Verse 6]
We, we will resist and bite
Bite hard, 'cause we are all in sight
We, we take up arms and fight
Fight hard, resist and do what's right
[Verse 7]
No matter how we're fighting
Their numbers will still count
We're outgunned and few in numbers
We're doomed to flag and fail
[Verse 8]
We fought hard!
Held our guard!
[Verse 9]
But when captured by the Axis
And forced to tell the truth
We will tell them with a smile
We will surprise them with a laugh
[Verse 10]
We are all!
We were all!
[Verse 11]
We were told to hold the border
And that is what we did
Honored were our orders
In despite of our foe
[Verse 12]
We, we will resist and bite
Bite hard, 'cause we are all in sight
We, we take up arms and fight
Fight hard, resist and do what's right
[Verse 13]
Gloria fortis miles, the Wehrmacht's closing in
Adversor et admorsus, the boar against the Eagle
[Verse 14]
Gloria fortis miles, the Wehrmacht's closing in
Adversor et admorsus, the boar against the Eagle
[Verse 15]
We, we will resist and bite
Bite hard, 'cause we are all in sight
We, we take up arms and fight
Fight hard, resist and do what's right
