Saga Prisoner Of Peace
He stuck up for his country, but he didn't like the
cost
The European brother war, and lives were being lost
He saw the grieving mothers whose sons could not be
found
He wanted peace to stop the endless coffins on the
ground
He got up on one morning and he went out to his plane
He said good-bye to his wife, but doubts were in his
brain
To sue for peace was his idea in 1941
But the bankers' grip was oh so tight, and the chance
for peace was gone
Chorus:
Free Rudolf Hess
How long can they keep him there? We can only guess
I said free Rudolf Hess
How long can they keep him there? We can only guess
He never realized that day that chivalry had died
Britain was in alien hands but at least a man had tried
Forty years is a long long time in a prison cell to be
And I feel ashamed at the sentence passed on a man who
wanted peace
(Repeat Chorus)
And now the situation has changed in many ways
The Allies want to let him go, they've decided he has
paid
The Red scum in the Kremlin with their kosher values
try
To keep a proud man locked away until the day he dies
(Repeat Chorus)
He's a prisoner of peace
Kept there at the will of the Marxists in the east
He's a prisoner of peace
Kept there at the wishes of the Marxists in the east
