Where's Nancy

Perhaps I was too weary, perhaps I slept too long,
Now I must find my Army, but every turn seems wrong.
               "Where's Nancy?"

My head is hurting, my feet are sore, and I really don't feel well.
All I want is to find that river, the one they call Moselle.  
                 ~ but~
               "Where's  Nancy?:"

I don't know why they left me. I know where they must be.
They're fighting Germans far to the north in a town they call Nancy.
                "Where's Nancy?"

I finally find the river. I hear the bombs loud noise.
Sacre' Bleu. I see my team. I can join the Army boys.
               ~And  best of all~
                   "Here's Nancy".
  
                       *Nancy is a town in France. American forces 
                     had a skirmish there during WW2.
