Your Little Band Of Gold - Hank Snow[00:00:00]
On the raging field of battle[00:00:08]
In a dugout dark and cold[00:00:12]
Lies a soldier boy in tears and wracked with pain[00:00:17]
We gathered close beside him[00:00:25]
As our captain said a prayer[00:00:29]
We knew his chance to live was all in vain[00:00:33]
He opened up his big blue eyes[00:00:41]
Ans smiled thro' flowing tears[00:00:45]
These last few words then to our captain told[00:00:49]
In this pocket by my heart[00:00:57]
Sir is a message send it please[00:01:00]
And with it send this little band of gold[00:01:05]
I promised you sweetheart someday I'd meet you[00:01:13]
Your tender form close to my heart I'd fold[00:01:22]
But I'll never keep that promise[00:01:30]
I have trod the last long mile[00:01:34]
But I'm sending you your little band of gold[00:01:38]
We laid him down in silence[00:01:46]
T'was so hard to leave him there[00:01:50]
Our hearts were heavy as we walked away[00:01:54]
But we know tonight in heaven[00:02:02]
There's another soldier boy[00:02:06]
Who'll be marked a hero on that judgement day[00:02:10]
We wrote his dear old mother[00:02:19]
Sent his love to folks back home[00:02:23]
And told her God had called him to the fold[00:02:27]
And the message to his darling[00:02:35]
We so carefully mailed away[00:02:39]
With his picture and her little band of gold[00:02:43]
