Adam Harvey - The Kokoda Anthem (Battle For Australia) lyrics

rate me

Our Anzacs left for over there

When darkness fell on Leicester Square

In freedom's name for liberty

They fought and died for you and me

Poland's gone, France has fell

Pearl Harbor blown to hell

Prison camps, millions dead

Europe's burning, newsreel said

Australian sons of the Southern Cross

It's time to stand against the odds

The Kokoda Trail and the Rising Sun

And fight with God 'til the battle's won

The Kokoda Trail the track to hell

Where soldier sons and angels fell

That mountain range of death and pain

Where young blood flowed like jungle rain

The Kokoda Trail the track from hell

Where Fuzzy Wuzzy angels dwell

Heroic souls to guide us on

And safely bring our wounded home

Australian sons of the Southern Cross

Victorious against the odds

The Kokoda Trail and the Rising Sun

They took them on and fought and won

Australian sons of the Southern Cross

Victorious against the odds

The Kokoda Trail and the Rising Sun

They took them on and fought and won

They took them on ......... and fought and won
