MY BRAVE YOUNG MEN
THERE ARE NAME UPON NAMES WRITTEN ON THIS PLAQUE
OF BRAVE YOUNG MEN WHO NEVER CAME BACK
TAKE A GOOD LOOK AS THEY GO MARCHING BY
I WANT YOU TO HEAR THEIR WIDOWS AND MOTHERS CRY
I WANT YOU TO TOUCH EACH LONELY TEAR,
AND FEEL EACH HEARTACHE, THAT WILL NEVER DISAPPEAR
LOOK INTO THE EYES OF EACH WIFE, MOTHER AND DAD,
AND TOUCH THE SMALL HAND OF EACH FATHERLESS CHILD
THAT WAR HAS LEFT SO SAD
OH MY FRIEND, NEVER FORGET AS YOU WALK BY
THESE BRAVE YOUNG MEN WHO HAD TO DIE
LET IT BE KNOWN AND EVER SO PLAIN,
THAT MY BRAVE YOUNG MEN DID DIE IN VAIN
AMERICA WILL ALWAYS BE THE HOME OF THE BRAVE
AMERICA WILL ALWAYS BE THE LAND OF THE FREE
BECAUSE OF THE LIFE OF EACH YOUNG MAN,
WHOSE NAME IS WRITTEN IN BLOOD, UPON ME
REST IN PEACE, MY BRAVE YOUNG MEN.
