《Just Before the Battle》歌词

[00:00:00] Just Before the Battle - The Princeton Trio/Paul Hansen

[00:00:06] Just before the battle Mother

[00:00:15] I am thinking most of you

[00:00:24] While upon the battle fields we're watching

[00:00:33] With the enemy in view

[00:00:42] Comrades brave are round me lying

[00:00:51] Filled with thoughts of home and God

[00:01:00] For well they know that on the morrow

[00:01:09] Some will sleep beneath the sod

[00:01:18] Farewell Mother you may never

[00:01:27] Press me to your heart again

[00:01:36] But oh you'll not forget me Mother

[00:01:45] If I'm numbered with the slain

[00:01:55] Hark I hear the bugels sounding

[00:02:04] 'Tis the signal for the fight

[00:02:12] Now may God protect us Mother

[00:02:22] As he ever does the right

[00:02:31] Hear the battle cry of freedom

[00:02:40] How it swells up in the air

[00:02:48] Yes we'll rally round the standard

[00:02:58] Or we'll perish nobly there

[00:03:07] Farewell Mother you may never

[00:03:16] Press me to your heart again

[00:03:24] But oh you'll not forget me Mother

[00:03:34] If I'm numbered with the slain
