Johnny Horton
EbIn May of 1941 the B7war had just Ebbegun
The AbGermans had the biggest ship that Ebhad the biggest guns
EbThe Bismarck was the fastest ship that ever sailed the sea
On her decks were guns as big as steers and B7shells as big as Ebtrees
Out of the cold and foggy night came the B7British ship the EbHood
And Abevery British seaman he Ebknew and understood
EbThey had to sink the Bismarck, the terror of the sea
Stop those guns as big as steers and those B7shells as big as Ebtrees
We'll find the German battleship that's B7making such a Ebfuss
We gotta sink the Bismarck cause the B7world depends on Ebus
Yeah, Abhit the decks a running boys and Ebspin those guns around
When we find the Bismarck we B7gotta cut her Ebdown
The Hood found the Bismarck B7and on that fatal Ebday
The AbBismarck started firing Ebfifteen miles away
EbWe gotta sink the Bismarck was the battle sound
But when the smoke had cleared away the B7mighty Hood went Ebdown
For six long days and weary nights they B7tried to find her Ebtrail
ChurcAbhill told the people put Ebevery ship a-sail
EbCause somewhere on that ocean I know she's gotta be
We gotta sink the Bismarck to the B7bottom of the Ebsea
We'll find that German battleship that's B7makin' such a Ebfuss
We gotta sink the Bismarck 'cause the B7world depends on Ebus
Yeah, Abhit the decks a running boys and Ebspin those guns around
When we find the Bismarck we B7gotta cut her Ebdown
The fog was gone the seventh day and B7they saw the morning Ebsun
Ten Abhours away from homeland the EbBismarck made its run
The EbAdmiral of the British fleet said turn those bows around
We found that German battleship and B7we're gonna cut her Ebdown
The British guns were aimed and the B7shells were coming Ebfast
The Abfirst shell hit the Bismarck, they Ebknew she couldn't last
EbThat mighty German battleship is just a memory
Sink the Bismark was the battle cry that B7shook the seven Ebseas
We found that German battleship was B7makin' such a Ebfuss
We had to sink the Bismarck 'cause the B7world depends on Ebus
We Abhit the decks a-runnin' and we Ebspun those guns around
