Old Soldiers Never Die Lyrics

[Intro]
Fade away, fade away

[Chorus]
Old soldiers never die
Never die, never die
Old soldiers never die
They just fade away

[Verse 1]
On the seventh of December
In the year of '41
The free world met disaster
At the hands of the Rising Sun
From the bastions of Corregidor
Pearl Harbor and Bataan
Came the sound of war and fury
And the death march of freeman

[Chorus]
Old soldiers never die
Never die, never die
Old soldiers never die
They just fade away
Old soldiers never die

[Verse 2]
Then from the land of way down under
A mighty voice did say
Our cause is just, in God we trust
I will return someday
From Mindanao to Tarawa
Our battle song it grew
Until on Suribachi
At last old glory flew

[Chorus]
Old soldiers never die
Never die, never die
Old soldiers never die
They just fade away
Old soldiers never die

[Verse 3]
From Iwo, Leyte, and a Thousand Isles
Our just cause never ceased
Until one day, he did return
And once more, there was peace
And now somewhere, there stands the man
His duty o'er and won
The world will never forget him
To him, we say, "Well done"

[Chorus]
Old soldiers never die
Never die, never die
Old soldiers never die
They just fade away
Old soldiers never die
