Lyrics
Landed on the hilltop, Soviet forces are in place
Awaiting orders!
They were only 39
They were told to hold the line
In control
Sent into battle, came from the sky
Trapped on a mountain, and into the fire
Hold your ground
When you’re fighting those who fight
Death is waiting on the hill
No surrender, shoot to kill
You have to
Hold your ground
Kill the warrior in your sight
Death is waiting on the hill
No surrender, shoot to kill
January 7th, hold the hilltop at all costs
Follow orders!
Holding their ground
To the final round
One by one
Fight through the sundown, into the night
Enduring the darkness, awaiting the light
Stand, hold your ground
Come around
Hostile land
Your last stand
Under fire low on munitions, make your bullets count
Push their warriors back down the mountain, rule the battlefront
