Sink the Bismarck - Don Lang & His Frantic Five

In May of 1941 the war had just begun

The Germans had the biggest ship

That had the biggest guns

The Bismarck was the fastest ship

That ever sailed the sea

On her decks were guns as big as steers

And shells as big as trees

Out of the cold and foggy night came

The British ship the Hood

And every British seaman

He knew and understood

They had to sink the Bismarck

The terror of the sea

Stop those guns as big as steers

And those shells as big as trees

We'll find the German battleship

That's makin' such a fuss

We gotta sink the Bismarck 'cause

The world depends on us

Yeah hit the decks a runnin' boys

And spin those guns around

When we find the Bismarck we gotta cut her down

The Hood found the Bismarck

And on that fatal day

The Bismarck started firing fifteen miles away

We gotta sink the Bismarck was the battle sound

But when the smoke had cleared away

The mighty Hood went down

For six long days and weary nights

They tried to find her trail

Churchill told the people put every ship asail

'Cause somewhere on that

Ocean I know she's gotta be

We gotta sink the Bismarck to the bottom of the sea

We'll find the German battleship

T'was makin' such a fuss

We gotta sink the Bismarck 'cause

The world depends on us

Yeah hit the decks a runnin' boys

And spin those guns around

When we find the Bismarck we gotta cut her down

The fog was gone the seventh day

And they saw the morning sun

Ten hours away from homeland

The Bismarck made it's run

The Admiral of the British fleet said

Turn those bows around

We found that German battleship

And we're gonna cut her down

The British guns were aimed

And the shells were coming fast

The first shell hit the Bismarck

They knew she couldn't last

That mighty German battleship is just a memory

Sink the Bismarck was the battle cry

That shook the seven seas

We found the German battleship

T'was makin' such a fuss

We had to sink the Bismarck 'cause

The world depends on us

We hit the deck a runnin' and we

And spun those guns around

Yeah we found the mighty Bismarck

And then we cut her down

We found the German battleship

T'was makin' such a fuss

We had to sink the Bismarck 'cause

The world depends on us

We hit the deck a runnin' and we

And spun those guns around

Yeah we found the mighty Bismarck

And then we cut her down
