[00:02.895] My brave lad he sleeps in his faded coat of blue;
[00:15.289] In a lonely grave unknown lies the heart that beat so true
[00:25.009] He sank faint and hungry among the famish'd brave
[00:32.797] And they laid him sad and lonely within his nameless grave
[00:46.286] No more the bugle calls the weary one,
[00:51.990] Rest, noble spirit,
[00:55.566] In thy grave unknown! I'll find you and know you,
[01:06.419] Among the good and true,
[01:11.023] When a robe of white is giv'n for a faded coat of blue
[01:31.226] He cried, "give me water and just a little crumb,
[01:39.800] And my mother she will bless you thro' all the years to come;
[01:49.687] Oh! tell my sweet sister, so gentle, good and true,
[01:58.828] That I'll meet her up in heaven, in my faded coat of blue."
[02:13.275] No more the bugle calls the weary one,
[02:18.797] Rest, noble spirit,
[02:22.703] In thy grave unknown! I'll find you and know you,
[02:33.650] Among the good and true,
[02:38.217] When a robe of white is giv'n for the faded coat of blue
[02:57.324] No sweet voice was there breathing soft the mother's pray
[03:05.680] But there is one who takes the grave and the true intender care
[03:15.564] No stone marks the sod oh my lad so brave and true
[03:23.048] In his lonely grave he sleeps in his faded coat of blue
[03:37.427] No more the bugle calls the weary one,
[03:44.238] Rest, noble spirit,
[03:48.321] In thy grave unknown! I'll find you and know you,
[03:58.368] Among the good and true,
[04:02.552] When a robe of white is giv'n for the faded coat of blue
[04:18.545] No more the bugle calls the weary one...........
