Yet another verse by Van Ronk: I did a little time in world war two When them panzer tanks came rolling through in the middle of a mine field field beneath barbed wire They pinned us down with machine gun fire There were bullets flying everywhere and shrapnel shrapening everywhere My captain showed no fear Said he, "I need a volunteer Somebody has got to storm that hill Somebody has got to go Just to charge up that hill where those mines are laid And to blow them to hell with a hnd grenade The man who storms that hill," He said, "Will live in history." I'd rather live in Hackensack It's got to be somebody else, not me.
