The one who loved battle, he who enjoys war
Stories been told, but none like this before
On their way to the front lines he was found by
The Polish 22nd artillery supply
Nursing him back to strength
With milk from a vodka bottle in hand
A brother in arms, drinking his beers
Smoking and wrestling with his peers
Marching along to the frontier
Enforcing only the up most revere
The smiling warrior, the beast of war
When out of ammo, they send for
A smoking beer drinking war machine
Artillery supply, his routine
Encountered an enemy spy in the way
From mascot to hero in just one day
The British 8th Army did not agree
Enlisted him as private before taking to sea
Sailing towards the aid of the Allied forces can not be to late
The Battle of Monte Cassino rages on, supplying until dawn
Artillery and mortars were relentlessly pounding the ground
Didn't scare Private Voytek, didn't bother with death around
Through the trenches during the fight
Carrying shells with the speed of light
Through the bloodshed in the shotgun ride
Cruising on the front lines his head outside
The smiling warrior, the beast of war
When out of ammo, they send for
A smoking beer drinking war machine
Artillery supply, his routine
The smiling warrior, the soldier bear
Puts down shells everywhere
Not human and no one will care
Corporal Voytek, the Syrian brown bear
Through the trenches during the fight
Carrying shells with the speed of light
Through the bloodshed in the shotgun ride
Cruising on the front lines his head outside
