Normandy

(Machine guns going and dropping the bombs) (And that's just the way things went) (And would I do it again? Damn right I would) 101st, first to fight On the 6th of June To save the world that night 1944 Never fought before Teenage kids all geared up Ready to win that war We sat outside his hand built home And he told me about his life A hundred years old Remembrin' every moment of that fight "In the morning The storms rolled in It was completely silent Jumpin' into open fire Explosion one continuous flame a hell of a sight to see Normandy, Normandy" He said, "That's another thing They don't understand We had to win the war or risk losing this free land" We sat outside his hand built home And he turned on the porch light I asked him if he'd do it again? And he said "You're damn right" In the morning The storms rolled in It was completely silent Jumpin' into open fire Explosion one continuous flame a hell of a sight to see Normandy, Normandy Yeah, the odds were stacked against 'em And nothing added up But somehow by the grace of God, it was enough They held on 'cause they had too But some had to give it up In Normandy, Normandy Never forget the hero's who kept us free In Normandy, Normandy And sacrificed it all that day, in Normandy (You're as viable to this country today, as we were in World War II) (And don't you ever forget it)
