Lyrics

[00:18.32] Tell my father that his son
[00:24.19] Didn't run, or surrender
[00:34.43] That I bore his name with pride
[00:40.26] As I tried to remember
[00:50.68] You are judged by what you do
[00:55.23] While passing through
[01:06.35] As I rest 'neath fields of green
[01:11.46] Let him lean on your shoulder
[01:21.53] Tell him how I spent my youth
[01:26.64] So the truth could grow older
[01:36.73] Tell my father when you can
[01:41.93] I was a man
[01:52.10] Tell him we will meet again
[01:57.65] Where the angels learn to fly
[02:06.95] Tell him we will meet as men
[02:12.28] For with honor did I die
[02:23.26] Tell him how I wore the Blue
[02:28.55] Proud and true through the fire
[02:38.78] Tell my father so he'll know
[02:43.80] I love him so
[03:26.77] Tell him how I wore the blue
[03:32.06] Proud and true like he taught me
[03:42.62] Tell my father not to cry
[03:49.87] Then say goodbye
