HILLS OF KOREA
There's blood on the hills of Korea
Tis the blood of the brave and the true
Of the nations that battle together
'Neath the banner of red, white and blue.
As men marched over the hills of Korea
To the hill where their enemy lay
They remembered the Brigadier's orders
That those hills must be taken today.
As they swung forward into action
Their faces unsmiling and stern
For they knew as they charged up that hillside
That many would never return
Some thought of their wives and their mothers
Some of their sweetheart so fair
But all as they plodded and stumbled
Were softly whispering a prayer.
Yes there's blood on the hills of Korea
It's the gift for the freedom they loved
May their names rest in glory forever
And their souls high in heaven above.
