Verse1:
We’re off to Battle with the Sunrise,
Boys, Drink to the foam tonight
You may want to run,
But you should stay and fight

We steam ahead for Country,
our shipmates and our kin,
But our guns are loaded and ready for war,
We may not be home again

On our way home from a secret mission
On a moonless night pitch dark
Only god and the navigator
Have any clue where we are

Refrain x1:
Honor, courage, and glory
Are the Lives, that we lead.
Honor, courage, and glory
Are the reason, that young men bleed.

Verse 2:
On a calm pacific morning
On the 30th of July
Report of a fast wake inbound
And we know that this is our time

Don your gear, sound the alarm
And Man your battle posts
Mutter a hushed prayer
To the father, son, and holy ghost

Emergency evasion!
Torpedo off the starboard side
its too late to avoid it,
the hull is blown open wide

Refrain:
Honor, courage, and glory
Are the Lives, that we lead.
Honor, courage, and glory
Are the reason, that young men bleed.

Verse3:
She’s taken on too much water
Abandon ship! We’re going down!
Boys cut the life boats free now
Or we will surely drown

Jump overboard and swim toward shore
As fast as you may
Take stock of your provisions
We might be out here for days
Poseidon reclaims his property
And all we can do is wait

Refrain2:
And if you should fall
Never again to rise
We’ll drink to you, one and all
For giving up your lives

Verse 4:
Though we could not save good ship and crew
We did as we had sworn
Nearly a thousand men Lost to the deep
So that Little Boy might be born

Those not lost to the fight
Still had to carry on
300 grateful sailors
Fought the merciless ocean and won

Refrain2:
And those who have fallen
Our brothers at arms
We’ll drink to you, one and all
For giving up your lives
