I see the distant flames, They bellow in the night, On that battlefield, Is where in lies the fight. Wave after wave of enemy, Plummets down the slope, I am at the bottom, And haven't a shred of hope. I tell my men to steady, And may God be with them all, Of all the men around me, I was the first to fall. Tell my family I love them, That's all that I can do, Tell them on the battlefield, I died for the Red, White, and Blue. |
