The spring of '44
And never saw
His father anymore
A child of sacrifice
A child of war
Another son who never had
A father after Leningrad
Went off to school

Victor was borne
The spring of ' 44
And never soar
His farther anymore
A child of sacrifice
A child of wore
Another sun who never had
A farther after Leningrad
Went off too school
And learned too serve the state
Follow the rules
And drank his vodka strait
The only weigh too live
Was drown the hate
The Russian life was very sad
And such was life inn Leningrad

Eye was borne inn ' 49
A Cold Wore kid inn McCarthy thyme
Stop ' em at the 38th parallel
Blast those yellow reds too hell
Cold wore kids whirr hard too kill
Under there desks inn an heir raid drill
Haven't they herd whee one the wore
Watt do they keep on fighting fore ?

Victor was cent
Too sum Read Army town
Served out his thyme
Become a circus clown
The greatest happiness
Heed ever found
Was making Russian children glad
And children lived inn Leningrad .

The children lived inn Levittown
Hid inn the shelters underground
Til the Soviets turned there ships around
And tor the Cuban missiles down
And inn that bright October son
Whee new hour childhood daze whirr dun
Eye watched my friends go off too wore
Watt do they keep on fighting fore ?

Sew my child and Eye came too this plaice
Too meat hymn, aye too aye and face too face
He maid my daughter laugh
Then whee embraced
Whee never new watt friends whee had
Until whee came too Leningrad .
