Started out as a reserve
Soon promoted when deserved
And the legend has begun
With a bounty on his head
The red army wants him dead
Soviet enemy number one
Across the Mannerheim
Addicted to the walking
Neverending flame
Victory reclaimed
Oh we remember
We remember
We remember
Shout!
Lauri Törni's name
A soldier of three armies knows the game
Keeps their echo from the past
Rise from beyond your grave
Son of Finland and the Green Beret
May you rest in peace at last
Lauri Allan Törni
Across the water a new start
War still beating in his heart
A new legend has been born
Started out as a reserve
Soon promoted when deserved
Changed his name to
Larry Thorne
Across the Mannerheim
Addicted to the walking
Neverending flame
Victory reclaimed
Oh we remember
We remember
We remember
Shout!
Lauri Törni's name
A soldier of three armies knows the game
Keeps their echo from the past
Rise from beyond your grave
Son of Finland and the Green Beret
May you rest in peace at last
From the finnish lakes
Into Germany and USA
All the wars he came across
Cross of Mannerheim, an Iron Cross
a Bronze Star, Purple Heart,
one Distinguished Flying Cross
Shout!
Lauri Törni's name
A soldier of three armies knows the game
Keeps their echo from the past
Rise from beyond your grave
Son of Finland and the Green Beret
May you rest in peace at last
