Started out as a reserve
Soon promoted well deserved
And the legend has begun!
With a bounty on his head
The Red Army wants him dead
Soviet enemy number one!
Cross of Mannerheim
Addicted to the war game
Never-ending flame
Victory reclaimed
Oh we remember, we remember
We remember!
Shout Lauri Törni's name!
A Soldier of Three Armies knows the game
Deeds that echo from the past!
Rise from beyond your grave
Son of Finland and the Green Barret!
May you rest in peace at last!
Lauri Allan Törni!
Crossed the water, a new start
War still beating in his heart
A new legend has been born!
Started out as a reserve
Soon promoted well deserved
Changed his name to Larry Thorne!
Cross of Mannerheim
Addicted to the war game
Never-ending flame
Victory reclaimed
Oh we remember, we remember
We remember!
Shout Lauri Törni's name!
A Soldier of Three Armies knows the game
Deeds that echo from the past!
Rise from beyond your grave
Son of Finland and the Green Barret
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
Deeds that echo from the past!
Rise from beyond your grave
Son of Finland and the Green Barret!
May you rest in peace at last!
Lauri Allan Törni!
