Bound For Glory 20 Kilometers Lyrics

20 Kilometers Lyrics

Divisions stand at the border prepared for the Eastern trek



Operation Barbarossa is launched into full effect



The border is crossed, the assault begins, massed in furious waves



The spark is lit, the shelling starts, blitzkrieg sets the stage











Over the marshes and the plains



The panzers start to roll



Death from above raining missiles



The stukas take their toll



The brave soldiers of Europe



Set out to join the East and West



Against the red dragon



Mother Eurpoe sent her best











With full speed ahead, they were gaining ground



Into the heart of the enemy



They liberated the villages and towns from the yoke of tyranny



They were welcomed as heros, over the cities their standard flew



It was mass victory in the East in the summer of 42











They drove on with amazing speed



Until they were outside Moscows gates



They had the kremlin in their sights



But they didn't know what hell awaits



Victory was so close in their grasp



For their volk, their nation and their blood



Then the rain set in for endless days



Turning the ground to mud











Chorus:



There's 20 more kilometers to go



As the November rains turn into snow



Just 20 more kilometers to go



So near, yet so far from delivering the final blow











Their move was coming to a halt,



They were running out of supplies



Their tanks immobile in the mud,



The earth was swallowing them alive



The cold set in, freezing the men,



General winter reared his head



Yet the fight was on in this frozen land



That claimed so many dead











The Bolslevik resistance grew



Their manpower and supplies had no end



Now the attacking soldiers of Europe



Had to turn to defend



Against Asiatic hordes enforced



By allied supplies



How could the allies support communism



And its Marxist lies?











(Repeat Chorus) x2











20 more kilometers to go...
