The Battle of Stalingrad
lyrics
There is no land behind the icy Volga charge forth my comrades holding shoulder to shoulder now the Nagant shivers in my fingers the land shudders as Stalingrad crumbles down on burning banks the taste of death lingers river Volga river Volga I’ll not be coming home the motherland calls Her children have answered and I’ll not die alone Hell knows not the wrath of Volga’s Fire the wolf howls in thirst the blood which is shed that the oil be cursed by the souls of the dead the perished million peer into Volga’s Fire We’ll take the brunt soldiers in their lawlessness pushing the front to conquer the Caucasus they the unstoppable force We the immovable object feverish the sweat from my brow now the Nagant shivers in my fingers the land shudders as Stalingrad crumbles down on burning banks the taste of death lingers river Volga river Volga I’ll not be coming home the motherland calls Her children have answered Hell knows not the wrath of Volga’s Fire the wolf howls in thirst the blood which is shed that the oil be cursed by the souls of the dead the perished million peer into Volga’s Fire fighting house to house floor to floor the bullets rip through the ruins of our once great city We’ll turn back their starving frozen grip My mind explodes into their ranks driven to Your bloody burning banks river Volga river Volga I’ll not be coming home the motherland calls Hell knows not the wrath of Volga’s Fire the wolf howls in thirst the blood which is shed that the oil be cursed by the souls of the dead the perished million peer into Volga’s Fire
