Thousands of feet march to the beat It’s an army on the march Long way from home Paying the price in young men’s lives Thousands of feet march to the beat It’s an army in despair Knee-deep in mud Stuck in a trench with no way out Thousands of machineguns Kept on firing through the night Mortars blazed and wrecked the scene Gone is the fields that once were green Still a deadlock at the frontline Where the soldiers die in mud roads and houses since long gone still no glory has been won know that many men has suffered know that many men has died Six miles of ground has been won Half a million men are gone And as the men crawled the general called And the killing carried on and on And on What’s the purpose of it all? What’s the price of a mile? Thousands of feet march to the beat It’s an army on the march Long way from home Paying the price in young men’s lives Thousands of feet march to the beat It’s an army in despair Knee-deep in mud Stuck in a trench with no way out Young men are dying They pay the price Oh how they suffer So tell me what’s the price of a mile That’s the price of a mile. Thousands of feet march to the beat It’s an army on the march Long way from home Paying the price in young men’s lives Thousands of feet march to the beat It’s an army in despair Knee-deep in mud Stuck in a trench with no way out ========= Historic Fact ========== A major World War I campaign on the Western Front, the Battle of Passchendaele took place from July 31 to November 10, 1917, between the Allied forces and the Germans in Flanders.
