《Just Before the Battle》歌词

[00:00:00] Just Before the Battle - Will Oakland/Ian Swinley

[00:00:11] Just before the battle Mother

[00:00:17] I am thinking most of you

[00:00:22] While upon the fields we're watching

[00:00:28] With the enemy in view

[00:00:34] Comrades brave are round me lying

[00:00:40] Filled with thoughts of home and God

[00:00:46] For well they know that on the morrow

[00:00:53] Some will sleep beneath the sod

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

[00:01:06] Press me to your heart again

[00:01:12] But oh you'll not forget me Mother

[00:01:21] If I'm numbered with the slain

[00:01:42] Hark I hear the bugels sounding

[00:01:48] It is the signal for the fight

[00:01:53] Now may God protect us Mother

[00:01:59] As he ever does the right

[00:02:06] Hear the battle cry of freedom

[00:02:11] How it swells up in the air

[00:02:17] Oh yes we'll rally round the standard

[00:02:24] Or we'll perish nobly there

[00:02:32] Farewell Mother you may never

[00:02:38] Press me to your heart again

[00:02:44] But oh you'll not forget me Mother

[00:02:51] If I'm numbered with the slain

[00:03:43] Farewell Mother you may never

[00:03:47] Press me to your heart again

[00:03:54] But oh you'll not forget me Mother

[00:04:04] If I'm numbered with the slain
