Mama Take Me Home
Mama take me away from blood
kiss my cheek as mammas should, give
my breath to those who died, wash my
tongue for times I lied
Sooth the souls of comrades dead, into
battle bravely led, take my hand and lift
me free, let me walk neath apple tree
Please tell Papa that I tried, needn’t tell
him that I cried, and when you drive the
cows to home, remember mama,
I’m not alone
