The Ballad Of Rodger Young - Burl Ives[00:00:00]
Oh they've got no time for glory in the Infantry [00:00:05]
Oh they've got no use for praises loudly sung [00:00:10]
But in every soldier's heart in all the Infantry[00:00:15]
Shines the name shines the name of Rodger Young [00:00:20]
Shines the name Rodger Young [00:00:26]
Fought and died for the men he marched among [00:00:31]
To the everlasting glory of the Infantry [00:00:36]
Lives the story of Private Rodger Young [00:00:41]
Caught in ambush lay a company of riflemen[00:00:46]
Just grenades against machine guns in the gloom [00:00:51]
Caught in ambush till this one of twenty riflemen[00:00:56]
Volunteered volunteered to meet his doom [00:01:01]
It was he who drew the fire of the enemy[00:01:06]
That a company of men might live to fight [00:01:11]
And before the deadly fire of the enemy[00:01:16]
Stood the man stood the man we hail tonight [00:01:22]
Stood the man Rodger Young [00:01:27]
Fought and died for the men he marched among [00:01:32]
Like the everlasting courage of the Infantry [00:01:37]
Was the courage of Private Rodger Young [00:01:42]
On the island of New Georgia in the Solomons[00:01:48]
Stands a simple wooden cross alone to tell [00:01:56]
That beneath the silent coral of the Solomons[00:02:04]
Sleeps a man sleeps a man remembered well [00:02:13]
Sleeps a man Rodger Young [00:02:23]
Fought and died for the men he marched among [00:02:29]
In the everlasting spirit of the Infantry[00:02:35]
Breathes the spirit of Private Rodger Young [00:02:40]
Shines the name Rodger Young [00:02:45]
Fought and died for the men he marched among [00:02:51]
To the everlasting glory of the Infantry[00:02:56]
Lives the story of Private Rodger Young[00:03:01]
