When The First Bombs Fell - Lee Kernaghan[00:00:00]
Written by:Garth Porter/Colin Buchanan[00:00:00]
19th February 1942[00:00:18]
Bathurst island sent a message through[00:00:22]
There's a big formation and they're bearing down[00:00:25]
From the north west headed straight for Darwin town[00:00:29]
The first bomb exploded down beside the wharf[00:00:41]
They hit the USS Peary and the oil stores[00:00:44]
The Neptuna went up in a ball of flame[00:00:48]
The black smoke rose when the zeros came[00:00:52]
We've got[00:00:55]
Smoking barrels on the LMGs[00:00:56]
Man the Vickers grab your 303s[00:01:00]
We're on the ropes but we'll give 'em hell[00:01:04]
Darwin rumbled when the first bombs fell[00:01:08]
1000 ponders blew the town apart[00:01:14]
The hit the post office on the esplanade[00:01:18]
The family died in the surprise attack[00:01:22]
But the AA batteries were fighting back[00:01:25]
The 2nd wave unloaded on the aerodrome[00:01:37]
Machine guns rattled and bombs exploded[00:01:41]
Hangars blazing as the shrapnel flies[00:01:44]
Armed invaders in Australian skies[00:01:48]
We've got[00:01:51]
Smoking barrels on the LMGs[00:01:52]
Man the Vickers grab your 303s[00:01:56]
We're on the ropes but we'll give 'em hell[00:02:00]
Darwin rumbled when the first bombs fell[00:02:04]
We've got[00:02:25]
Smoking barrels on the LMGs[00:02:26]
Man the Vickers grab your 303s[00:02:30]
We're on the ropes but we'll give 'em hell[00:02:34]
Smoking barrels on the LMGs[00:02:38]
Man the Vickers grab your 303s[00:02:42]
We're on the ropes but we'll give 'em hell[00:02:46]
Darwin rumbled when the first bombs fell[00:02:50]
