My Head Is Filled With Music

My name is Billy Millin

I braved the Norman Shore

Mortal shells, machine guns

D-Day 1944

Back in forth I piped away

Many soldiers fell that day

Battle raging all around

And the allies held their ground!

Lord Lovat, my commander,

who him-self had stormed the beach

In the greatest sea invasion

In all of history!

He ordered me, Bill Millin,

"Play your pipes and take the lead!"

Battle fire all around and I barely heard a sound

Cause my head is filled with music!

In my heart there's always a song!

Yes my head is filled with music!

When I lead those soldiers on!

Piping through the gore and muck the

Germans thought me mad

Screelin' 'Highland Laddie' raising

Courage in the lads!

We took the beach in a dreadful fight!

Kept in fire all through the night!

We finally took the town!

And I barely heard a sound!

Cause my head is filled with music!

In my heart there's always a song!

Yes my head is filled with music!

When I lead those soldiers on!

Cause my head is filled with music!

In my heart there's always a song!

Yes my head is filled with music!

When I lead those soldiers on!
