lyrics

Lay Down Beside Me and Weep

Go lay down your slings and arrows
Their time has passed
Go lay down your guns and rifles
In the wet green grass

Lay down beside them and weep
Lay down beside them and weep

Go lay down your fine young soldier
High up on the hill
Set him down in a simple casket
Where the air is still

Lay down beside him and weep
Lay down beside him and weep

Go lay down your precious daughter
Deep beneath the ground
Where a headstone with no inscription
May or may not be found

Lay down beside her and weep
Lay down beside her and weep

Lay down beside me and weep
Lay down beside me and weep
