When the Tigers Broke Free - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)[00:00:00]

It was just before dawn[00:01:26]

One miserable morning in black 'forty four[00:01:29]

When the forward commander[00:01:37]

Was told to sit tight[00:01:40]

When he asked that his men be withdrawn[00:01:42]

And the Generals gave thanks[00:01:48]

As the other ranks held back[00:01:51]

The enemy tanks for a while[00:01:54]

And the Anzio bridgehead[00:01:58]

Was held for the price[00:02:01]

Of a few hundred ordinary lives[00:02:03]

And kind old King George[00:02:11]

Sent Mother a note[00:02:13]

When he heard that father was gone[00:02:17]

It was I recall[00:02:22]

In the form of a scroll[00:02:24]

With gold leaf adorned[00:02:27]

And I found it one day[00:02:33]

In a drawer of old photographs hidden away[00:02:36]

And my eyes still grow damp to remember[00:02:43]

His Majesty signed[00:02:48]

With his own rubber stamp[00:02:50]

It was dark all around[00:02:56]

There was frost in the ground[00:02:59]

When the tigers broke free[00:03:03]

And no one survived[00:03:07]

From the Royal Fusiliers Company Z[00:03:10]

They were all left behind[00:03:18]

Most of them dead[00:03:22]

The rest of them dying[00:03:24]

And that's how the High Command[00:03:30]

Took my daddy from me[00:03:34]
