[00:01.29] My Youngest Son Came Home Today
[00:09.73] My youngest son came home today
[00:15.11] His friends marched with him all the way
[00:21.80] The pipes and drum beat out the time
[00:26.30] While in his box of polished pine
[00:31.98] Like dead meat on a butcher's tray
[00:38.40] My youngest son came home today
[00:53.15] My youngest son was a fine young man
[00:58.83] With a wife, a daughter and two sons
[01:04.90] A man he would have lived and died
[01:09.78] Till by a bullet sanctified
[01:13.53] Now he's a saint or so they say
[01:21.65]
[01:22.34] They brought their young saint home today
[01:28.99]
[01:36.98] Above the narrow Belfast streets
[01:42.29] An Irish sky looks down and weeps
[01:48.35] At children's blood in gutters spilled
[01:53.49] In dreams of freedom unfulfilled
[01:59.30] As part of freedom's price to pay
[02:08.39] My youngest son came home today
[02:13.71]
[03:04.27] My youngest son came home today
[03:09.74] His friends marched with him all the way
[03:15.99] The pipe and drum beat out the time
[03:20.93] While in his box of polished pine
[03:26.51] Like dead meat on a butcher's tray
[03:32.63] My youngest son came home today
[03:36.46]
[03:42.90] And this time he's home to stay
[00:01.29] My Youngest Son Came Home Today
[00:09.73] My youngest son came home today
[00:15.11] His friends marched with him all the way
[00:21.80] The pipes and drum beat out the time
[00:26.30] While in his box of polished pine
[00:31.98] Like dead meat on a butcher s tray
[00:38.40] My youngest son came home today
[00:53.15] My youngest son was a fine young man
[00:58.83] With a wife, a daughter and two sons
