HMS Warspite
[Verse 1] Launched in thirteen, a queen of the seas Warspite her name, a sight to appease Steel grey her skin, guns bold and bright Ready to fight for king and for right [Chorus] From Jutland's cold waters to Narvik's fierce fight The Grand Old Lady stood strong in the light Through bomb and through shell, she never did yield Warspite, the warship, on history's field [Verse 2] Mediterranean sun, on her deck did it gleam North African shores, echoed with her steam Normandy beaches, she pounded the wall For freedom's sweet call, she gave her all [Chorus] From Jutland's cold waters to Narvik's fierce fight The Grand Old Lady stood strong in the light Through bomb and through shell, she never did yield Warspite, the warship, on history's field [Bridge] Years took their toll, her battles were done The Grand Old Lady, her race was outrun To the scrapyard she went, a fate bittersweet But legends don't die, in memories they meet [Outro] So raise your glass high, to the ship that's no more Warspite, the warrior, forever we adore Her spirit still sails, on the ocean's blue sway The Grand Old Lady, forever will stay [Bridge] Years took their toll, her battles were done The Grand Old Lady, her race was outrun To the scrapyard she went, a fate bittersweet But legends don't die, in memories they meet [Chorus] From Jutland's cold waters to Narvik's fierce fight The Grand Old Lady stood strong in the light Through bomb and through shell, she never did yield Warspite, the warship, on history's field [Outro] So raise your glass high, to the ship that's no more Warspite, the warrior, forever we adore Her spirit still sails, on the ocean's blue sway The Grand Old Lady, forever will stay
