The Forgotten Soldier Boy - The Stanley Brothers[00:00:00]

I'm just a poor ex soldier[00:00:04]

That's broken down and blue[00:00:08]

I'm fought out in the great world war[00:00:12]

For the old red white and blue[00:00:16]

I left my parents and my girl I love[00:00:20]

To France did go[00:00:25]

And fought out on the battlefield through the hunger[00:00:28]

Sleet and snow[00:00:33]

I saw my buddies dying[00:00:45]

And some shell shocked and torn[00:00:49]

Although we never faltered[00:00:53]

At the battle of Amarne[00:00:56]

And we were told when[00:01:00]

We left home we'd be heroes of the land[00:01:02]

So we came back and found[00:01:08]

No one would lend a helping hand[00:01:10]

They promised gold and silver[00:01:31]

And bid us all adieu[00:01:34]

They said they'd welcome us back home[00:01:38]

When the terrible war was through[00:01:41]

We fought until the war was over[00:01:45]

They said we'd won the fight[00:01:48]

But we have no job or money[00:01:52]

No place to sleep at night[00:01:56]

They called us wandering boys bums[00:02:08]

Asking for shelter and bread[00:02:12]

Although we fought in no man's land[00:02:15]

And a many poor boy is dead[00:02:18]

So listen to my story and lend a helping hand[00:02:22]

To the poor forgotten soldier boy[00:02:29]

Who fought to save our land[00:02:33]
