(Harris/Dickinson)
2
The convoy lights are dead ahead
3
The merchantmen lay in their bed
4
The thump of diesels hammers down
5
In the oily sea-the killing ground
6
His knuckles white his eyes alight
7
He slams the hatch on the deadly night
8
A cunning fox in the chickens lair
9
A hound of hell and the devil don't care
10
chorus
11
Runing silent,runing deep,we are your final prayer
12
Warriors in secret sleep,a merchantman's nightmare
13
A silent death lies awaiting,for all of you below
14
Running silent,running deep,sink into your silent sleep
15
Chill the hearts of fighting men
16
In open ocean wondering when?
17
The lethal silver fish will fly
18
The boat will shiver-men will die
19
A cast of millions-a part to play
20
Killer? victim? or fool for a day
21
Obeying an order-men have to die
22
Us or them - a well rehearsed lie
23
chorus
24
The lifeboats shattered the hull is torn
25
The tar black smell of burning oil
26
On the way down to davy jones
27
Every man for himself - you're on your own
28
The wolf eyes watch the crosswire
29
'Stern tubes ready','aim and fire|'
30
They can pin some medal on your chest
31
But in two more weeks - dead like the rest
32
chorus
