Pearl Harbor Lyrics

December 7th our nation awoke to the sounds of bombs
and guns
Japanese planes swept though the sky civilians began to
run
my great-grandfather tells a tale of a day of smoke and
fire
American ships burned in the harbor like a funeral pyre

Remember Pearl Harbor- an American battle cry
Remember Pearl Harbor- the American brave who died
Remember the pain, remember the blood
but never.......FORGIVE!

American men manned their guns and awoke from their
morning sleep
planes swept low and dropped to their death our ships
sank in the deep
on the dock my great-grandfather fought manning his gun with rage
watching our fleet sink and comrades die, the beginning
of an age

Young men killed by asian foe over 2000 counted dead
the ships burned the smoke stank as pearl harbor ran
red
as the smoke cleared pain and anger ran though the men
they promised vengeance and vowed their lives for pearl
harbor thy would win

To my great-grandfather and his comrades dead I make
this solemn vow
I will never forget your fight and ill avenge you no
matter how
if our nation's enemies attack we must remember lessons
past
take vengeance with no mercy if our nation is to last
