(sounds like dirt xxi & xxii) sing us one of your songs may


we have laid here
we have laid here
we have laid here before

we have laid here
we have laid here
we have laid here before

whistle sinking, blow the bugles
blues came back in night fight
rabbits laughing in black doyt-holes
lilies bleeding in the street

we have laid here
we have laid here
we have laid here before

captured armies, news impending
wheels longing now to stop

we have laid here
we have laid here
we have laid here before

we have laid here
we have laid here
we have laid here before



sing us one of your songs, may
the ones you know so well
sing us one of your songs, may
you know we love you well
dry the tears from your eyes, may
what's it gonna be?
for you know he's gone to heaven, may
though he was only 23

they say he was a brave one, may
and we all here agree
there never was a finer one, may
that died for his country

sing us one of your songs, may
the ones you know so well
sing us one of your songs, may
you know we love you well
dry the tears from your eyes, may
what's it gonna be?
for you know he's gone to heaven, may
though he was only 23

they say he was a brave one, may
and we all here agree
there never was a finer one, may
that died for his country

sing us one of your songs, may
