Go To Top

On Patrol in No Man's Land Lyrics

What the time? Nine?
Fall in line
Alright, boys, now take it slow
Are you ready? Steady!
Very good, Eddie.
Over the top, let’s go
Quiet, lie it, else you’ll start a riot
Keep your proper distance, follow ’long
Cover, brother, and when you see me hover
Obey my orders and you won’t go wrong

There’s a Minenwerfer coming —
look out! Hear that roar, there’s one more...
Stand fast, there’s a Very light...
Don’t gasp or they’ll find you all right!
Don’t start to bombing with those hand grenades
There’s a machine gun, holy spades!
Alert, gas! Put on your mask.
Adjust it correctly and hurry up fast!
Drop! There’s a rocket from the Boche barrage...
Down!, hug the ground, close as you can,
Creep and crawl, follow me, that’s all...
What do you hear? Nothing near
Don’t fear, all is clear
That’s the life of a stroll
When you take a patrol
Out in No Man’s Land
Ain’t it grand?
Out in No Man’s Land

»We can't stop these men... They are devils... They smile while they kill... and you can't catch them alive«

There’s a Minenwerfer......

»Right, boys! Go on’rido it! Get the bloody boys! Get them on the bayonet!... Ram it on!«

What do you hear? Nothing near
Don’t fear, all is clear
That’s the life of a stroll
When you take a patrol
Out in No Man’s Land
Ain’t it grand?
Out in No Man’s Land
