The Dying Soldier - The Carter Family (卡特家族)/Henry Whitter/Clayton McMichen[00:00:00]

France's sun was slowly sinking over the hilltops far away[00:00:11]

The land was in it's beauty where the dying soldier lay[00:00:17]

Tears were streaming down his face as he slowly raised his head[00:00:24]

And these were the dying words he said[00:00:29]

Oh carry me back to old Tennessee[00:00:34]

Let this be my last repose[00:00:39]

Lay my feet beneath the lilacs[00:00:44]

Lay my head beneath the rose[00:00:49]

Take this message to my mother for I know she's old and gray[00:01:17]

At home I know she's waiting looking for her boy some day[00:01:22]

Oh dear mother I pulled through for my country and for you[00:01:28]

And I'm dying for the red white and blue[00:01:34]

Oh carry me back to old Tennessee[00:01:39]

Let this be my last repose[00:01:44]

Lay my feet beneath the lilacs[00:01:49]

Lay my head beneath the rose[00:01:54]

Over the hills of Tennessee where the wild winds wander free[00:02:21]

The little girl waiting there for me[00:02:27]

Tell her that the rose she gave me will be placed upon my grave[00:02:32]

In memory of her soldier brave[00:02:37]

Oh carry me back to old Tennessee[00:02:42]

Let this be my last repose[00:02:47]

Lay my feet beneath the lilacs[00:02:52]

Lay my head beneath the rose[00:02:56]
