Sometimes war is killing
Sometimes it's saving lives
It's the judgement of fate
It's nothing that man can dictate
Corporal Leslie Allen carried them from Tambu
Saved his brothers in arms
When hour follow through
There and back again Bull just carried on
Under fire he carried them out one by one
There and back again bullets all around
All of the man that he carried away
Twelve men would now live to see one more day
His fear heald at bay as he carried them away
Sometimes war is killing
Sometimes it's saving lives
From Australia's shore
Bull Allen went to all
Sometimes war is saving
Sometimes it's taking lives
Thanks to one single man
A dozen more survives
There and back again, Bull just carried on
Under fire he carried them out one by one
There and back again bullets all around
All of the man that he carried away
Twelve men would now live to see one more day
His fear heald at bay as he carried them away
Some man return from a war in a bag
Yet the world knows their story
Others return unwilling to brag
Alive, and haunted at heart
NOOOOO!
