His eyes they close and his last breath spoke He had seen all to be seen A life once full Now an empty vase Wilt the blossoms on his early grave Walk away me boy, walk away me boy And by morning we'll be free And wipe that golden tear from your mother dear And raise what's left of the flag for me Then the rosary beads count to one, two, three Fell apart as they hit the floor In a garb of black we must pay respect To the color we were born to mourn Walk away me boy, walk away me boys Morning we'll be free Wipe that golden tear from your mother dear Raise what's left of the flag for me In a spiked ruin an angry festered wound Filled of hatred and remorse Where I pick and scratch 'til the blooded mess The silent rage that filled my lungs There are many ways to kill a man they say With bayonet, axe or sword Son a bullet fired from a shapeless gun Just put the shell of a thompson gun Walk away me boys, walk away me boys By morning we'll be free Wipe that golden tear from your mother dear Raise what's left of the flag for me From the east out to the western shore Where many men and many more will fall But no angel flies with me tonight Though freedom reigns on all And curse the names for which we slaved our days So every men chose kingdom come Alright But sure as night turns day it's the fashion play My god what have they done With madmen's rage while they dug our graves But the dead rise again you fools Walk away me boys, walk away me boys By morning we'll be free Wipe that golden tear from your mother dear Raise what's left of the flag for me Walk away me boys, walk away me boys By morning we'll be free And wipe that golden tear from your mother dear And raise what's left of the flag for me
