wild colonial bhoys - what's left of the flag lyrics

Loading...

his eyes, they closed, 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 boys, walk away, me boys
and by morning we’ll be free
wipe that golden tear from your mother dear
raise what’s left of the flag for me

then the rosary beads, count them, one, two, three
fell apart as they hit the floor
in our garb of black we must pay respect
to the color we’re born to mourn

walk away, mе boys, walk away, me boys
by morning we’ll be free
wipе that golden tear from your mother dear
raise what’s left of the flag for me

in his place there grew an angry festered wound
filled with hatred and remorse
where i’d pick and scratch at the blood amassed
the silent rage now that fills my lungs

for there are many ways to k!ll a man, they say
with bayonet, axe, or sword
but son, a bullet fired from a shapeless guise
leaves the sh+ll of a thompson gun
walk away, me boys, walk away, me boys
and 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 cried for me tonight, freedom reigns on all
we curse the name which we slaved our days, so every man chose kingdom come

but sure as night turns day, ends the passion play
oh my god, what have we done?
when the mad men rage, well they dug our graves
but the dead rise again, you fools

walk away, me boys, walk away, me boys
and 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
and by morning we’ll be free
wipe that golden tear from your mother dear
and raise what’s left of the flag for me
