The Lumineers - Charlie Boy
.
Charlie boy, don''t go to war, first born in forty–four
Kennedy made him believe we could do much more
.
Ohhh ooh ooh ooh
Ohhh ooh ooh ooh
.
Lillian, don''t hang your head, love should make you feel good
In uniform you raised a man, who volunteered to stand
.
Ohhh ooh ooh ooh
Ohhh ooh ooh ohh
.
Play the bugle, play the taps and
Make your mothers proud
Raise your rifles to the sky boys
Fire that volley loud
.
News was bad on upland ave., metuchen mourn our loss
Sons rebelled, while fathers yelled, and mothers clutched the cross
.
Ohhh ooh ooh ooh
Ohhh ooh ooh ooh
.
Play the bugle, play the taps and
Make your mothers proud
Raise your rifles to the sky boys
Fire that volley loud
