《Rodger Young》歌词

[00:00:00] Rodger Young - Jim Reeves

[00:00:02] On july 31 st 1943 a bloody round in the battle

[00:00:06] For the solomon islands

[00:00:07] Was being fought in the tangled jungle of the island of new georgia

[00:00:11] This is the story of one of the young men who fought and died there

[00:00:14] This song is respectfully dedicated to those heroic infantrymen

[00:00:18] Who like roger young have sacrificed their lives

[00:00:22] That their nation might remain forever free

[00:00:27] Caught in ambush lay a company of riflemen

[00:00:36] Just grenades against machine guns in the gloom

[00:00:46] Caught in ambush till this one of twenty riflemen

[00:00:56] Volunteered volunteered to meet his doom

[00:01:06] Volunteered roger young

[00:01:15] Fought and died for the men he marched among

[00:01:25] In the everlasting courage of the infantry

[00:01:35] Was the courage of private roger young

[00:01:45] On the island of new georgia in the solomons

[00:01:55] Stands a simple wooden cross alone to tell

[00:02:05] That beneath the silent coral of the solomons

[00:02:14] Sleeps a man sleeps a man remembered well

[00:02:24] Sleeps a man roger young

[00:02:34] Fought and died for the men he marched among

[00:02:44] In the everlasting glory of the infantry

[00:02:54] Lives the story of private roger young
