RIVER PATROL

Night time embraces us
With cold hands of fear.
With cold hands of fear
Night time chases us
And embraces us with fear.

The enemy surrounds us
As our cannons complain.
As our cannons complain
The enemy is facing us
And death is its name.

Night time embraces us
With cold hands of fear.
With cold hands of fear
The enemy has taken us
And death is its name.

Ernest Kelly
