We all know the story of Pearl Harbor, but do we know it from a vessel's point of view?
PEARL HARBOR
When we hear of the harbor clear,
The story of her history, we seldom hear.
One way out, one way in,
There was more than a hundred and fifty men.
Warnings and notes, they didn't heed,
For them they thought they didn't need.
But in they came, Japan it was,
When it ended the word was ha's.
As they did, planes were bombed,
Fires were then great alarm.
"Tora, Tora, Tora" went the cry,
For they were as far as the Eastern sky.
We still remember that historical day,
In a more horrible, terror way.
As every man killed had a name,
America has never been the same.
Now all the great ships are gone,
Her whole story is never done.
Arizona has her part to tell,
Even under the harbor, she has to yell.
"Fight fight for your country now,
We have lost our mighty wow.
I will never sail to sea again,
That one way out, one way in."
That morning all was clear,
Not a plane was in the air.
As we watched from the tower,
Bombs were dropped like a shower.
One way out, one way in,
Remember the hundred and fifty men.
Remember Oklahoma, remember Arizona,
Remember, remember, remember Pearl Harbor.
