John McDermott - The Faded Coat Of Blue

Kishore Kumar Hits — John McDermott - The Faded Coat Of Blue lyrics

Artist: John McDermott

album: Remembrance

My brave lad sleeps in his faded coat of blue
In a lonely grave unknown lies the heart that beat so true
He sank faint and hungry among the famish'd brave
And they laid him sad and lonely within his nameless grave
No more the bugle calls the weary one
Rest, noble spirit in thy grave unknown
I'll find you and know you among the good and true
When a robe of white is giv'n for the faded coat of blue
♪
He cried, "Give me water and just a little crumb"
And my mother, she will bless you thro' all the years to come
Oh, tell my sweet sister, so gentle, good and true
That I'll meet her up in heaven, in my faded coat of blue
No more the bugle calls the weary one
Rest, noble spirit in thy grave unknown
I'll find you and know you among the good and true
When a robe of white is giv'n for the faded coat of blue
♪
Long, long years have vanished, and though he comes no more
Yet my heart will startling beat with each footfall at my door
I gaze o'er the hill where he waved a last adieu
But no gallant lad I see, in his faded coat of blue
No more the bugle calls the weary one
Rest, noble spirit in thy grave unknown
I'll find you and know you among the good and true
When a robe of white is giv'n for the faded coat of blue
