blooDy DAY
July,6, 1944 on those bloody shores
Gunned down without remorse
Three countries on a course
Hoping for no final verse
The dying inside a hearse
The massive strike brought Hitler fright
The battle went throughout the night
The allies followed the enemies flight
Hoping they would get out of sight
Back on the bloody shores
The shrieking on every dock
Hoping their blood would clot
Some would be buried on the spot
On the beach where they got shot
That day was a
blooDy DAY
Gunned down without remorse
Three countries on a course
Hoping for no final verse
The dying inside a hearse
The massive strike brought Hitler fright
The battle went throughout the night
The allies followed the enemies flight
Hoping they would get out of sight
Back on the bloody shores
The shrieking on every dock
Hoping their blood would clot
Some would be buried on the spot
On the beach where they got shot
That day was a
blooDy DAY
