Robe of White - Louvin Brothers[00:00:00]

Written by：Charles Louvin[00:00:03]

The postman knocked and waited[00:00:07]

For her sweet face to appear[00:00:10]

A face that showed her heart was full of joy[00:00:13]

In the cottage doorway smiling through her tears[00:00:20]

Each time he brought a message from her boy[00:00:25]

Her calloused hands were trembling[00:00:32]

The postman noticed too[00:00:35]

That her sweet and anxious face was white[00:00:38]

Would this be the letter[00:00:45]

That she had waited for[00:00:47]

And would it tell her that he was alright[00:00:51]

I'm sorry said the postman[00:01:10]

I must ask you to sign[00:01:13]

This little book that I have brought along[00:01:16]

You see this letter's registered[00:01:22]

He slowly bowed his head[00:01:26]

And then she knew that there was something wrong[00:01:29]

The address on the corner[00:01:35]

Of this envelope of blue[00:01:38]

Told her that her darling son was dead[00:01:42]

Where Jimmys name and number[00:01:48]

Had always been before[00:01:51]

His captain's name was written there instead[00:01:54]

Dear God they've made my darling's grave[00:02:07]

Thou' knowest of his soul[00:02:10]

She prays a humble prayer to God each night[00:02:13]

Place on his grave a blooming rose[00:02:20]

So all the world can see[00:02:23]

My soldier boy has won his robe of white[00:02:26]
