[00:01.29] | My Youngest Son Came Home Today |
[00:09.73] | My youngest son came home today |
[00:15.11] | His friends marched with him all the way |
[00:21.80] | The pipes and drum beat out the time |
[00:26.30] | While in his box of polished pine |
[00:31.98] | Like dead meat on a butcher's tray |
[00:38.40] | My youngest son came home today |
[00:53.15] | My youngest son was a fine young man |
[00:58.83] | With a wife, a daughter and two sons |
[01:04.90] | A man he would have lived and died |
[01:09.78] | Till by a bullet sanctified |
[01:13.53] | Now he's a saint or so they say |
[01:21.65] | |
[01:22.34] | They brought their young saint home today |
[01:28.99] | |
[01:36.98] | Above the narrow Belfast streets |
[01:42.29] | An Irish sky looks down and weeps |
[01:48.35] | At children's blood in gutters spilled |
[01:53.49] | In dreams of freedom unfulfilled |
[01:59.30] | As part of freedom's price to pay |
[02:08.39] | My youngest son came home today |
[02:13.71] | |
[03:04.27] | My youngest son came home today |
[03:09.74] | His friends marched with him all the way |
[03:15.99] | The pipe and drum beat out the time |
[03:20.93] | While in his box of polished pine |
[03:26.51] | Like dead meat on a butcher's tray |
[03:32.63] | My youngest son came home today |
[03:36.46] | |
[03:42.90] | And this time he's home to stay |
[00:01.29] | My Youngest Son Came Home Today |
[00:09.73] | My youngest son came home today |
[00:15.11] | His friends marched with him all the way |
