Divisions stand at the border prepared for the Eastern trek
|
Operation Barbarossa is launched into full effect
|
The border is crossed, the assault begins, massed in furious waves
|
The spark is lit, the shelling starts, blitzkrieg sets the stage
|
|
|
Over the marshes and the plains
|
The panzers start to roll
|
Death from above raining missiles
|
The stukas take their toll
|
The brave soldiers of Europe
|
Set out to join the East and West
|
Against the red dragon
|
Mother Eurpoe sent her best
|
|
|
With full speed ahead, they were gaining ground
|
Into the heart of the enemy
|
They liberated the villages and towns from the yoke of tyranny
|
They were welcomed as heros, over the cities their standard flew
|
It was mass victory in the East in the summer of 42
|
|
|
They drove on with amazing speed
|
Until they were outside Moscows gates
|
They had the kremlin in their sights
|
But they didn't know what hell awaits
|
Victory was so close in their grasp
|
For their volk, their nation and their blood
|
Then the rain set in for endless days
|
Turning the ground to mud
|
|
|
Chorus:
|
There's 20 more kilometers to go
|
As the November rains turn into snow
|
Just 20 more kilometers to go
|
So near, yet so far from delivering the final blow
|
|
|
Their move was coming to a halt,
|
They were running out of supplies
|
Their tanks immobile in the mud,
|
The earth was swallowing them alive
|
The cold set in, freezing the men,
|
General winter reared his head
|
Yet the fight was on in this frozen land
|
That claimed so many dead
|
|
|
The Bolslevik resistance grew
|
Their manpower and supplies had no end
|
Now the attacking soldiers of Europe
|
Had to turn to defend
|
Against Asiatic hordes enforced
|
By allied supplies
|
How could the allies support communism
|
And its Marxist lies?
|
|
|
(Repeat Chorus) x2
|
|
|
20 more kilometers to go...
