500 tanks, lined up to advance

Attack upon the Hindenburg Line

At dawn we embark, in defence of France

This day we break the empire’s spine

Thousand gun barrage, marks the start of assault

Crossing triple belts of barbed wire

Pathways are cleared, closing in on Havrincourt

Time to set the ramparts afire

We’re the Tank Corps unleashed

We creep across the field

Leaving death in our wake

We’re the Tank Corps unleashed

You will face defeat

No one stands in our way

Germans on alert, our attack anticipated

Fighting on, we reach Bourlon Woods

Tanks roll through, in support of infantry

Our power; combination of arms

We’re the Tank Corps unleashed

We creep across the field

Leaving death in our wake

We’re the Tank Corps unleashed

You will face defeat

No one stands in our way

Breakthrough complete, ring the bells of victory

Nothing halts this armoured attack

Target overrun, mark the ridge with our flag

Commanded to dig in and hold on

We’re the Tank Corps unleashed

We creep across the field

Leaving death in our wake

We’re the Tank Corps unleashed

You will face defeat

No one stands in our way

We’re the Tank Corps unleashed

You’ll be the first to flee

When the ground starts to shake

We’re the Tank Corps unleashed

Thirty tonnes of steel

Sends you to an early grave

Sent onward for destruction

Push back fortifications

Leave the front in desolation

As we fight for liberation

This is war, nothing but war

War, nothing but war

Through mud and blood

The Tank Corps fights on

Through mud and blood

To the green fields beyond
