Campaign in the East

On a misty dawn, the spirit was
reborn, on the march to the east
Forward to Ukraine, another massive gain, into conflict with the beast
Forward into Russia, across the River Don, victory and glory, the
wheels were rolling on

Smash the Red flag of the beast
Yeah, the campaign in the East
Smash the Red flag of the beast
Yeah, the campaign in the east

And on those icy plains, they
made heavy gains, and now the skies were overcast
And when the winter came, nothing seemed the same, and they just prayed that they could last
Not so far from Moscow, and near to Leningrad
Victory did evade them now, the weather was so bad

Smash the Red flag of the beast
Yeah, the campaign in the East
Smash the Red flag of the beast
Yeah, the campaign in the east

Against the snow and ice, the soldiers’ sacrifice, the dreams were frozen to their deaths
And came the endless night, freezing cold and gloomy light, many soldiers took their final breath
And then came Stalingrad, the future looked so bad, even cold had helped the beast
And near the end of the game, like a plague old Stalin came
And on humanity he’d feast
Yeah, from the steppes of Russia, onto Poland’s plains
On onward into Germany, the western power waned

Smash the Red flag of the beast
Yeah, the campaign in the East
Smash the Red flag of the beast
Yeah, the campaign in the east
