Charlie Boy

Charlie boy, don't go to war Firstborn in '44 And Kennedy made him believe We could do much more Lillian, don't hang your head Love should make you feel good In uniform, you raised a man Who volunteered to stand Play the bugle, play the taps Make your mothers proud Raise your rifles to the sky, boys Fire that volley loud News was bad on Upland Ave Metuchen mourn our loss Sons rebelled, while fathers yelled And mothers clutched the cross Play the bugle, play the taps Make your fathers proud Raise your rifles to the sky, boys Fire that volley loud
