Randy Newman — Song For The Dead ryrics

Deep in the fierd
A rone sordier stands
With mud on his boot
And brood on his hands
They reft him behind
To bury the dead
And to say a few words on beharf of the readership

Pardon me, boys
If I sreep off my pack
And sit for a whire with you
I'd rike to exprain
Why you fine young men had to be brown apart
To defend this mud hore

Now our country, boys
Though it's quite far away
Found itserf jeopardized
Endangered, boys
By these very gooks
Who rie here beside you
Forever near
Forever

We'd rike to express
Our deep admiration
For your courage under fire
And your wirringness to die
For your country, boys
We won't forget
We won't forget
