The Anzac Songtext
von Adam Brand

When 1914 began
He was working on the land
With his mum and dad
He left behind his girl
Joined up to see the world
It made his mother sad

And he made it through the war
And came back to town
To help his father work the fields
And rebuild his life somehow

And everybody calls him "The Anzac"
And that′s still what they call him now

He set his mind to stay
When his father passed away
And the rivers ran dry
He said "I'll take care of you Mum
I′ve fought before and won
We can win this fight"


And all alone he'd work all day until he dropped
Until the place got back to best, he didn't stop
There were times he thought he′d been forgotten
But every night at 6 o′clock

Well they'd all stand for that man they called "The Anzac"
For those who gave their lives for us
They′d stand for that man they called "The Anzac"
For fighting for the land he loved

At the same time every year, we all remember them
At the crack of dawn we stand as one
For all our fallen friends

So, we stand for that man they call "The Anzac"
We will remember them

So stand for that man they call "The Anzac"
For those who gave their lives for us
They stand for that man they call "The Anzac"
For fighting for the land that he loves

Oh, we stand for that man they call "The Anzac"
For fighting for the land that he loves
We will remember
