Dying Soldier - The Carter Family (卡特家族)[00:00:00]
France's sun was slowly sinking o'er[00:00:12]
The hilltops far away[00:00:16]
The land was in its beauty[00:00:18]
Where the dying soldier lay[00:00:20]
Tears were streaming down his face[00:00:24]
As he slowly raised his head[00:00:27]
And these were the dying words he said[00:00:29]
Oh carry me back to old Tennessee[00:00:35]
Let this be my last repose[00:00:40]
Lay my feet beneath the lilacs[00:00:45]
Lay my head beneath the rose[00:00:49]
Take this message to my mother for[00:01:17]
I know she's old and gray[00:01:20]
At home I know she's waiting[00:01:22]
Looking for her boy some day[00:01:25]
Oh dear mother I pulled through for[00:01:29]
My country and for you[00:01:32]
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]
O'er the hills of Tennessee[00:02:21]
Where the wild winds wander free[00:02:24]
The little girl waiting there for me[00:02:27]
Tell her that the rose she gave me[00:02:32]
Will be placed upon my grave[00:02:35]
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[00:02:57]
