Lyrics

From far and near ev’ryone will hear a message fly
Where-e’er you go ev’ryone will know this mighty cry

Chorus
It’s V for victory, Victory for you and me
V for victory will defeat the enemy
For when each mother’s son
And the men behind the gun
Will hear that we’re behind them
They’ll give out and shout
It’s V for victory thro’ the air the news will flash
V for victory, tapping out dot, dot, dot, dash
We will not give in until the fight is won
Then the land we live in will know the job is done
We’re free for Victory, V V V for Victory
