Cool woot

[MapleLeafInfantry]

(in the tune of the great escape)
Hitler, has only got one ball
Goering, has two but very small
Himmler has something simlier
But poor old Goebbels has no balls at all

Hitler, has only got one ball
The other is in the Albert Hall
His mother, the dirty Bugger
Chopped it off when he was very small

[Gringo]

What's that song that is in Band of Brothers that they sing when running up Currahee?

Vhistle Vhile Ve Verk
Hitler is a twerp
He's Half barmy
So's his army
Vhistle Vhile Ve Verk

Von Oblt. Wiehle am 25. Juni 1933 auf der Fahrt nach Königsbrück gedichtet



1. Ob's stürmt oder schneit,
Ob die Sonne uns lacht,
Der Tag glühend heiß
Oder eiskalt die Nacht.
Bestaubt sind die Gesichter,
Doch froh ist unser Sinn,
Ist unser Sinn;
Es braust unser Panzer
Im Sturmwind dahin.

2. Mit donnernden Motoren,
Geschwind wie der Blitz,
Dem Feinde entgegen,
Im Panzer geschützt.
Voraus den Kameraden,
Im Kampf steh'n wir allein,
Steh'n wir allein,
So stoßen wir tief
In die feindlichen Reihn.

3. Wenn vor uns ein feindliches
Heer dann erscheint,
Wird Vollgas gegeben
Und ran an den Feind!
Was gilt denn unser Leben
Für unsres Reiches Heer?
Ja Reiches Heer?
Für Deutschland zu sterben
Ist uns höchste Ehr.

4. Mit Sperren und Minen
Hält der Gegner uns auf,
Wir lachen darüber
Und fahren nicht drauf.
Und droh'n vor uns Geschütze,
Versteckt im gelben Sand,
Im gelben Sand,
Wir suchen uns Wege,
Die keiner sonst fand.

5. Und läßt uns im Stich
Einst das treulose Glück,
Und kehren wir nicht mehr
Zur Heimat zurück,
Trifft uns die Todeskugel,
Ruft uns das Schicksal ab,
Ja Schicksal ab,
Dann wird uns der Panzer
Ein ehernes Grab.

Translation Frank 1998

In blizzard or storm,
Or in sun warm and bright,
The day hot as hell
Or bone-chilling be the night,
Our faces may with dust be laid,
But spirits never fade,
No, never fade;
Relentless, our tank
Thunders out on a raid.

With engines a-howling,
Fast as is the wind,
We head for the foe,
Safe, as we're in armor skinned.
Our comrades still behind us roam;
We fight the foe alone,
Yes, fight alone.
We stab through the line
To break the foes backbone.

Whenever the foe
May appear in our sight,
We'll ram throttle full,
Then we'll humble all his might!
Of what use is our life if we
Our country serve freely?
Yes, serve freely!
To die for our country,
Our honour shall be.

With tank traps and mines,
Our foe tries to impede.
We laugh at his ruses;
We know he'll not suceed.
And when, in threat, his cannons stand,
Half hidden in the sand,
Yes, in the sand,
We can find our way
Over much safer land.

And should at long last,
Fickle Lady Luck leave,
And we remain here,
Leaving family to grieve,
A bullet with our name on it,
Find us and seal our fate,
Yes, seal our fate,
Our tank will our grave be
On that final date.

Still used by some Panzer battalions in Austria in a moderized form.

First to fight for the right
And to build the nation's might.
And the Army goes rolling along.
Proud of all we have done, Fighting till the battle's won. And the Army goes rolling along.


Then it's hi! hi! hey!
The Army's on its way,
Count off the cadence loud and strong:
For where'er we go, you will always know
that the Army goes rolling along.


Valley Forge, Custer's ranks
San Juan Hill and Patton's tanks,
And the Army goes rolling along.
Minutemen from the start,
Always fighting from the heart,
And the Army goes rolling along.


Then it's hi! hi! hey!
The Army's on its way,
Count off the cadence loud and strong: (2, 3, 4!)
For where'er we go, you will always know
that the Army goes rolling along.
