The Anzac

INTRO: X 2 When 1914 began He was working on the land With his mom and dad He left behind his girl, Joined up to see the world And make his mother sad He made it through the war Came back to town To help his father work the fields And rebuild his life somehow And everybody called him "The Anzac" That's still what they call him now INSTR: He set his mind to stay When his father passed away And the rivers ran dry He said I'll take care of you mom I've fought before and won And we can win this fight And all alone he'd work all day until he dropped Until the place got back to best he didn't stop There were time's he thought he'd been forgotten But every night at 6 o'clock There he'd stand for that man they called "The Anzac" And those who gave their lives for us__ They'd stand for that man they called "The Anzac" For fighting for the land he loved INSTR: At the same time every year we all remember him At the crack of dawn we stand as one For all our fallen friends So drink to that man we call "The Anzac" We will remember him So stand for that man they called "The Anzac" Those who gave their lives for us Let's stand for that man they call "The Anzac" For fighting for the land he loved So stand for that man they called "The Anzac" For fighting for the land we love We will remember them -FADE
