When I left my home and my family
my mother said to me
Son, it's not how many Germans you kill that counts
It's how many people you set free!
So I packed my bags
brushed my cap
Walked out into the world
seventeen years old
Never kissed a girl
Took the train to Voronezh
that was as far as it would go
Changed my sacks for a uniform
bit my lip against the snow
I prayed for mother Russia
in the summer of '43
And as we drove the Germans back
I really believed
That God was listening to me
We howled into Berlin
tore the smoking buildings down
Raised the red flag high
burnt the reichstag brown
I saw my first American
and he looked a lot like me
He had the same kinda farmer's face
said he'd come from some place called Hazzard, Tennessee
Then the war was over
my discharge papers came
Me and twenty hundred others
went to Stettiner for the train
Kiev! said the commissar
from there your own way home
But I never got to Kiev
we never came by home
Train went north to the Taiga
we were stripped and marched in file
Up the great siberian road
for miles and miles and miles and miles
Dressed in stripes and tatters
in a gulag left to die
All because Comrade Stalin was scared that
we'd become too westernized!
Used to love my country
used to be so young
Used to believe that life was
the best song ever sung
I would have died for my country
in 1945
But now only one thing remains
but now only one thing remains
But now only one thing remains
but now only one thing remains
The brute will to survive!
The Waterboys were formed in 1983 by Scottish multi-instrumentalist Mike Scott as a vehicle for his songwriting and vocals. Scott is the only permanent member and although there have been more than 30 players there have been a few important and prominent additions such as Anthony Thistlethwaite (multiple instruments notably saxophone and mandolin) Karl Wallinger (Keyboards) and Steve Wickham (Fiddle). The Waterboys have released more than ten albums but their most well known album is undoubtedly Fisherman's Blues (1988) which saw its title track reach the top ten. However it is their earlier album This Is the Sea (1985) that produced their two biggest hit singles "The Whole of the Moon". The Waterboys have been noted as an influence by many musicians most notably Grant Nicholas (Feeder) The Edge and Bono (U2) and Colin Meloy (The Decemberists). Most recently The Waterboys released a new album Book of Lightning (2007) which as so far produced one single, "Everybody Takes A Tumble" and they are currently playing limited dates in the US and Canada.
