Down Where The River Bends

歌詞

It's hard to keep the tears out of my eyes For this might be our last goodbye Your country calls you to defend this great land So do your part just like a man Down where the river bends With God's help, we'll meet again Under the same old sycamore tree Proud of each other in the land of the free I'll go down to the ocean blue And get just as close as I came to you Though the ocean wide may keep us apart It won't keep you, dear, from out of my heart Down where the river bends With God's help, we'll meet again Under the same old sycamore tree Proud of each other in the land of the free If the worst should happen and the poppies should wave Over your far and distant and lonely grave All the rest of my life I would spend in prayer I'll meet you in Heaven, they'll be no war there Down where the river bends With God's help, we'll meet again Under the same old sycamore tree Proud of each other in the land of the free Proud of each other in the land of the free
