Wolfpack



To their own shore came the world war

Gleaves and Ingham

Leading the bury west



Took the short way in

The long route back convoy 92

Bury Gleaves and Ingham leading

Tankers to the west

And upon the north Atlantic

Lies the silence of the seas

On a quietst night in the darkest hour

The kriegsmarine appear



Above the surface it seems quiet and calm

Deep down below the wolfpack lurks



[Chorus:]

To their own shore came the world war

Gleaves and Ingham

Leading the bury west

In their own track came the wolfpack

Gleaves led the conwoy

Into the hornets nest



At the crack of dawn the second day

Bury stands in flames

Half the convoy sunk or disabled

Heading back to shore

But below the north Atlantic

On the bottom of the sea

On the second night in the darkest hour

The kriegsmarine return



The wolfpack surface for a second time

To make the convoy face it's fate



[Chorus]



Under fire under water

May 42 when

Bury did fail the test

To their own shore came the world war

Gleaves and the Ingham

Leading them into death



569 makes the contact and lead them

U-94 scores a kill in the dark

124 sinking 4 in 2 approaches

406 suffers failure on launch [x2]



In their own track came the wolfpack

Gleaves led the conwoy

Into the hornets nest



To their own shore came the world war

Gleaves and Ingham

Leading the bury west

In their own track came the wolfpack

Gleaves led the conwoy

Into the hornets nest



Under fire under water

May 42 when

Bury did fail the test

To their own shore came the world war

Gleaves and the Ingham

Leading them into death
