Screaming Eagles lyrics

Crack of the lightning splitting the ground

Thunder is sounding, artillery pounding

Wrath of the Nazi's cast on Bastogne

Facing their forces alone

ALONE! [2x]

Sent from the skies jumped into the unknown

The march to Berlin has begun

Spearhead the charge surrounded by foes

Eagles are leading the way

France is still under enemy rule

Push, axis retreat

Thrown towards Arnhem a bitter defeat

They're stretched out just one bridge too far

Turn of the tide, it's breaking away

Losing momentum, retreat

Go to Bastogne, the crossroads must hold

Stand, alone in the cold

Crack of the lightning splitting the ground

Thunder is sounding, artillery pounding

Wrath of the Nazi's cast on Bastogne

Facing their forces alone

ALONE! [2x]

Dig your own foxholes or dig your own Grave

The storm is about to begin

The siege has begun, there's nowhere to run

Panzerkampfwagen emerge

Tanks and mortars are shaking the ground

Prey of man and machine

Crack of the lightning splitting the ground

Thunder is sounding, artillery pounding

Wrath of the Nazi's cast on Bastogne

Facing their forces alone

Chill of the winter bite to the bone and Christmas is drawing near

Soldiers are freezing, the death toll increasing

They're dying in their holes

There's no surrender there's no retreat, the Wehrmacht is drawing near

There's no reinforcements they're fighting all alone

Sent from the skies ended up in Bastogne

As easy, as hard as they get

Nazi command request and demand

Offer surrender – declined

Nuts! The generals word echo clear

Nuts! The Nazi's shall hear

[2x]

Crack of the lightning splitting the ground

Thunder is sounding, artillery pounding

Wrath of the Nazi's cast on Bastogne

Facing their forces alone
