Far from their land
As they made their stand
They stood strong
And the legend still lives on
1918 the Great War rages on
A battalion is lost in the Argonne
Under fire there's nothing they can do
There's no way they can get a message through
Suffer heavy losses as the battle carries on
Liberty division standing strong
Far from their land as they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
They live or they die there's no time for good bye
Weapon in hand as they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply they would rather die
Broke through the blockade they were finally saved
Friendly fire munitions running low
The supplies they were dropped upon their foe
1918 the war still rages on
The battalion still trapped in the Argonne
Chose not to surrender they chose victory or defeat
Fallen brothers resting by their feet
Far from their land as they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
They live or they die there's no time for good bye
Weapon in hand as they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply they would rather die
Broke through the blockade they were finally saved
Far from their land as they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
Live or die who can tell there's no good bye
With a weapon in hand as they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply they would rather die
They stood strong and the legend still lives on
Suffered heavy losses
Through the Great War they stood strong
But the memory of the fallen still lives on
Far from their land as they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
They live or they die there's no time for good bye
Weapon in hand as they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply they would rather die
Broke through the blockade they were finally saved
