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

Written by：Frank Loesser[00:00:01]

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

The Solomon Islands was being fought in the tangled[00:00:06]

Jungle of the island of New Georgia[00:00:09]

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

And died there[00:00:13]

This song is respectfully dedicated to those heroic[00:00:15]

Infantrymen who like Rodger Young have sacrificed[00:00:17]

Their lives that their nation might remain forever free[00:00:21]

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

Just grenades against machine guns in the gloom[00:00:37]

Caught in ambush till this one of twenty riflemen[00:00:47]

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

Volunteered Rodger Young[00:01:06]

Fought and died for the men he marched among[00:01:16]

In the everlasting courage of the infantry[00:01:26]

Was the courage of Private Rodger Young[00:01:35]

On the island of New Georgia in the Solomons[00:01:45]

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

That beneath the silent coral of the Solomons[00:02:06]

Sleeps a man sleeps a man remembered well[00:02:15]

Sleeps a man Rodger Young[00:02:25]

Fought and died for the men he marched among[00:02:35]

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

Lives the story of Private Rodger Young[00:02:54]
