A Rose Of Red - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]

Back to the rear of battle[00:00:05]

A digger boy was gay[00:00:09]

Thoughts of home across the sea[00:00:12]

Filled his heart today[00:00:15]

No thought of danger lingered[00:00:19]

In the soldier's head[00:00:22]

As loudly did he sing of love of love and roses red[00:00:25]

I have a childhood sweetheart[00:00:32]

Who waits so patiently[00:00:35]

A rose of red is in her hair[00:00:38]

To show her love for me[00:00:41]

We'll build a home together[00:00:45]

When I return from war[00:00:49]

With roses red a homely site growin' round the door[00:00:52]

The soldier boy kept singing[00:01:13]

His heart was warm today[00:01:17]

When from the trees a vicious crack and[00:01:19]

Death was on it's way[00:01:23]

The happy boy stopped singing[00:01:27]

And nothing we could do[00:01:30]

The air was cold he lay so still[00:01:33]

The sniper's aim was true[00:01:36]

We picked him up so gently[00:01:40]

And this is what was seen[00:01:43]

A rose of red from a sniper's shot[00:01:46]

Across his shirt of green[00:01:49]

The bullet travelled onward[00:01:53]

Deadly in it's flight[00:01:56]

A girl so sad her love has gone[00:01:59]

A rose had died tonight[00:02:02]
