[00:06.38]While the shot and shells were scattering
[00:11.73]All o'er the battlefield
[00:17.52]While the boys in France were fighting
[00:22.68]To save their noble flag
[00:33.84]Save their flag or give their lives
[00:39.54]All for their country and home

[01:02.20]For she knows how well I love her
[01:07.70]Kiss her dear sweet lips for me
[01:13.22]Tell her I'm not coming home
[01:24.39]Oh tell my darling sweetheart
[01:29.82]That her lips I'll kiss no more
[01:35.31]For this battlefield is awful
[01:40.91]I'm sure I'll see her no more
[01:46.32]Now I'd love to see my mother
[01:52.00]Kneeling by the old hearth stone
[01:57.39]But I'm in this hell right here on earth
[02:03.59]And her prayer I'll hear no more
[02:14.82]Go take the news to Mother
[02:20.25]For she knows how well I love her
[02:25.74]Kiss her dear sweet lips for me
