《Take the News to Mother》歌词

[00:00:00] Take the News to Mother - The Callahan Brothers/Buddy Harman Jr.

[00:00:06] While the shot and shells were scattering

[00:00:12] All o'er the battlefield

[00:00:18] While the boys in France were fighting

[00:00:24] To save their noble flag

[00:00:36] Save their flag or give their lives

[00:00:42] All for their country and home

[00:00:48] They brought him back and heard him say

[00:00:54] I can no longer stay

[00:01:01] Go take the news to Mother

[00:01:06] For she knows how well I love her

[00:01:12] Kiss her dear sweet lips for me

[00:01:18] Tell her I'm not coming home

[00:01:25] Oh tell my darling sweetheart

[00:01:30] That her lips I'll kiss no more

[00:01:36] For this battlefield is awful

[00:01:42] I'm sure I'll see her no more

[00:01:49] Now I'd love to see my mother

[00:01:54] Kneeling by the old hearth stone

[00:02:00] But I'm in this hell right here on earth

[00:02:06] And her prayer I'll hear no more

[00:02:11] Go take the news to Mother

[00:02:17] For she knows how well I love her

[00:02:23] Kiss her dear sweet lips for me

[00:02:28] Go take the news to Mother

[00:02:33] Mmmm Mmmm Mmmmmm
