A song about the 369th regiment that was mainly formed out of African American and Puerto Rican soldiers, and were not allowed to fight alongside the ordinary American soldiers.
[Narrative Intro]
Not welcome to fight along with others, the 369th Regiment from New York had to prove themselves over and over again. During the war, no other unit would see so fierce fighting, and none would fight so fierce. If Hell had a time and place, it would be the trenches of the Great War. And if Hell had soldiers...
[Verse 1]
From a land across the ocean
To the western front where they served
Fought with courage and dеvotion
Preconceptions turned
As thе spring offensive kept churning
Where the men would earn their name
See the tides of battle turning
And their foes ignite their flame
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the toll of the bell
Kept fighting for 6 months in hell
As the war rages on
They fight at the edge of the Argonne
[Chorus]
Hear the toll of the bell
Over 6 months in hell
Out of the trenches they came
As the war rages on
At the edge of the Argonne
Hellfighters earning their name
[Verse 2]
They would have no prisoners taken
And they never lost any ground
Earned the cross of war unshaken
Never turned around
As the armistice is drawing closer
The 369th
Kept on fighting until it was over
And they were first to reach the Rhine
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the toll of the bell
Kept fighting for 6 months in hell
As the war rages on
They fight at the edge of the Argonne
[Chorus]
Hear the toll of the bell
Over 6 months in hell
Out of the trenches they came
As the war rages on
At the edge of the Argonne
Hellfighters earning their name
[Instrumental break]
[Chorus]
Hear the toll of the bell
Over 6 months in hell
Out of the trenches they came
As the war rages on
At the edge of the Argonne
Hellfighters earning their name
