82nd All the Way (History Version) Sabaton

[Narrative Intro]
"All men are forged from a single mold but not all soldiers are equal. Sort them not by medals, not by rank. The difference lies in their actions under pressure. Some men crumble, some men go far, some men go all the way."

[Verse 1]
In the draft of 1917, a man from Tennessee
Overseas to the trenches he went, from the land of the free
Into war he brought two things along, a rifle and his faith
Joined the ranks as a private, assigned to 338th

[Pre-Chorus]
There on that day
Alvin York entered the fray
Saving the day
82nd all the way

[Chorus]
Into the fires of hell, the Argonne, a hero to be
Entered the war from over the sea
Intervene, 1918, all the way from Tennessee
Hill 223

[Verse 2]
When his faith has been put to the test, the call to arms he heeds
On the 8th of October he went, made a sergeant for his deeds
Fearless, leading the raid of the war, machine gun on the hill
Charge the enemy taking the prisoners by power of his will
