Panzerkampf

Sabaton · The Art Of War (Re-Armed Edition) [2010]

Into the motherland the German army march



In the Soviet Union summer 1943

Tanks line up in thousands as far the eye can see

Ready for the onslaught ready for the fight

Waiting for the Axis to march into the trap

Mines are placed in darkness in the cover of the night

Waiting to be triggered when the time is right

Imminent invasion imminent attack

Once the battle started there's no turning back



The end of the Third Reich draws near

It's time has come to an end

The end of an era is here

It's time to attack



Into the motherland the German army march

Comrades stand side by side to stop the Nazi charge

Panzers on Russian soil a thunder in the east

One million men at war the Soviet wrath unleashed



Fields of Prokhorovka where the heat of battle burned

Suffered heavy losses and the tide of war was turned

Driving back the Germans fighting on four fronts

Hunt them out of Russia out of Soviet land

Reinforce the frontline force the Axis to retreat

Send in all the reserves securing their defeat

Soldiers of the Union broke the citadel

Ruins of an army Axis rest in hell



The end of the Third Reich draws near

It's time has come to and end

The end of an era is here

It's time to attack



Into the motherland the German army march

Comrades stand side by side to stop the Nazi charge

Panzers on Russian soil a thunder in the east

One million men at war the Soviet wrath unleashed



Onward comrads! Onwards for the Soviet Union! Charge!



Oh Mother Russia union of lands

Will of the people strong in command

Oh Mother Russia union of lands

Once more victorious the Red Army stands



The end of the Third Reich draws near

It's time has come to and end

The end of an era is here

It's time to attack



Into the motherland the German army march

Comrades stand side by side to stop the Nazi charge

Panzers on Russian soil a thunder in the east

One million men at war the Soviet wrath unleashed
