lyrics
In the shroud of the morning sun
Time to think about the ones you love
Eat some grub and a drink some rum
Before the big guns start pounding the war drum.
Hero's Quest , only fit for the brave
These fearless men with a nation to save
Byng's Boys wait near the mouth of the cave
While the creeping barrage paves their way.
Chorus
Blood rains down on Vimy Ridge
Guns blaze across the sky
Men born of Canadian pride
Not afraid to die.
A prairie boy, fifty feet in the earth
Reads a letter from his girl who hurts
He longs for her, his heart does thirst
But he knows he's got a job to do first.
Small town girl wipes her tears away
For feels the truth, death is on it's way
Tragic farewell to the love she craves
In another life, she hopes to see him again.
Chorus
Blood was spilt as the battle raged
On the day our Nation came of age
On the backs of the men, whose lives they gave
And the tears of the women whose love they craved.
The price they paid is our debt
Let us vow never to forget
Bow your head and give a thought
To show those lives weren't for not.
Chorus
