P. T. 109 - Jimmy Dean/Charlie Byrd (查利·伯德站)[00:00:00]

In forty-three they put to sea thirteen men and Kennedy[00:00:05]

Aboard the PT 109 to fight the brazen enemy[00:00:11]

And off the isle of Olasana in the straits beyond the roo[00:00:16]

A Jap destroyer in the night cut the 109 in two[00:00:21]

Smoke and fire upon the sea[00:00:28]

Everywhere they looked was the enemy[00:00:30]

The heathen gods of old Japan[00:00:33]

Yeah they thought they had the best of a mighty good man[00:00:35]

And on the coast of Kolombangaro looking through his telescope[00:00:43]

Australia's Evans saw the battle for the crew had little hope[00:00:48]

Two were dead some were wounded all were clinging to the bow[00:00:53]

Fighting fire and a-fighting water trying to save their lives somehow[00:00:58]

Smoke and fire upon the sea[00:01:05]

Everywhere they looked was the enemy[00:01:08]

The heathen gods of old Japan[00:01:10]

Yeah they thought they had the best of a mighty good man[00:01:13]

McMahon the Irishman was burned so badly he couldn't swim[00:01:21]

Leave me here go on he said 'cause if you don't we'll all be dead[00:01:26]

The PT skipper couldn't leave him a man to die alone at sea[00:01:31]

And with a strap between his teeth he towed the Irishman through the sea[00:01:36]

Smoke and fire upon the sea[00:01:44]

Everywhere they looked was the enemy[00:01:46]

The heathen gods of old Japan[00:01:48]

Yeah they thought they had the best of a mighty good man[00:01:51]

He led his men through waters dark rocky reefs and hungry sharks[00:01:59]

Braved the enemies bayonets a thirty-eight hung round his neck[00:02:04]

Four more days and four more nights a rescue boat pulled into sight[00:02:09]

The PT 109 was gone but Kennedy and his crew lived on[00:02:14]

Now who could guess or who could possibly know[00:02:21]

That this same man named Kennedy[00:02:25]

Would be the leader of the nation be the one to take command[00:02:31]

The PT 109 was gone but Kennedy lived to fight again[00:02:37]

Smoke and fire upon the sea[00:02:44]

Everywhere they looked was the enemy but JFK and his crew lived on[00:02:47]

Which proves it's hard to get the best of a man named John[00:02:53]

Big John big John big John[00:03:00]
