The Great Guns Roar

I heard the great guns roar
Though I was upon dry land
They will echo all-my-life
Oh the great guns roar
Murder in the sky
Deep towers of water rise
Oh the great guns roar
Malta, Gibraltar
Alexandria
Kaso, Sirte
Kithira
A bedside game of drafts
Decorations spread like toys
Thunder overhead
A small frightened boy
Oh the great guns roar
Oh the great guns roar
Oh the great guns roar…
