[00:00:00] Wake Island - Oscar Brand

[00:00:01] Written by：Oscar Brand

[00:00:06] December the seventh we heard about pearl

[00:00:11] We knew we'd be next on the list

[00:00:14] The men of our corps four fifty no more

[00:00:17] All swore to the death to resist

[00:00:21] Wake island wake island

[00:00:23] Wake island wake island

[00:00:24] It's not even marked on the map

[00:00:28] Our corps raised her name into honor and fame

[00:00:32] When they stopped the advance of the Japs

[00:00:35] Cut off from supplies with no hope of aid

[00:00:39] We sighted the first Japanese

[00:00:42] With thousands of troops and a task force of ships

[00:00:46] They thought they could take us with ease

[00:00:49] Wake island wake island

[00:00:51] Wake island wake island

[00:00:53] It's not even marked on the map

[00:00:56] Our corps raised her name into honor and fame

[00:01:00] When they stopped the advance of the Japs

[00:01:04] They sent in their subs their ships and their planes

[00:01:07] They shelled us by day and by night

[00:01:11] Surrender they said we laughed at their threats

[00:01:14] We're only beginning to fight

[00:01:18] Wake island wake island

[00:01:19] Wake island wake island

[00:01:21] It's not even marked on the map

[00:01:25] Our corps raised her name into honor and fame

[00:01:28] When they stopped the advance of the Japs

[00:01:32] Our four hundred fifty cost six thousand Japs

[00:01:36] Our fighters downed twenty eight planes

[00:01:39] We sank two destroyers and one submarine

[00:01:43] Six others got shelled for their pains

[00:01:46] Wake island wake island

[00:01:48] Wake island wake island

[00:01:50] It's not even marked on the map

[00:01:53] Our corps raised her name into honor and fame

[00:01:57] When they stopped the advance of the Japs

[00:02:01] Our plan was to fight to the very last man

[00:02:04] But Deveraux gave this command

[00:02:08] There's a thousand civilians I can't sacrifice

[00:02:11] We'll have to surrender our band

[00:02:15] Wake island wake island

[00:02:16] Wake island wake island

[00:02:18] It's not even marked on the map

[00:02:22] Our corps raised her name into honor and fame

[00:02:26] When they stopped the advance of the Japs

[00:02:29] As we lay down our arms on the twenty third day

[00:02:33] The japs cheered the news of defeat

[00:02:36] But they could not believe

[00:02:38] A few crummy marines

[00:02:40] Had stopped the whole Japanese fleet

[00:02:43] Wake island wake island

[00:02:45] Wake island wake island

[00:02:47] It's not even marked on the map

[00:02:51] Our corps raised her name into honor and fame

[00:02:54] When they stopped the advance of the Japs
