Up at o'four thirty And down to bed at twenty-two A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. The trumpet's sound is the call of day And the call of the trumpet ends the day, But not the same. A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. The sounds of boots in perfect sync, Is interrupted in a blink. A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. A battle rages between the groups, But defeat is near to the troops. A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. Men and boys cry alike, As no help from allies is in sight. A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. War as it seem is not lifelike, Instead it causes death and fights. A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. Up at o'four thirty And down to bed at twenty-two This is a tale of a mother's lad, A mother's lad he was.

A Mother's Lad
Up at o'four thirty And down to bed at twenty-two A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. The trumpet's sound is the call of day And the call of the trumpet ends the day, But not the same. A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. The sounds of boots in perfect sync, Is interrupted in a blink. A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. A battle rages between the groups, But defeat is near to the troops. A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. Men and boys cry alike, As no help from allies is in sight. A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. War as it seem is not lifelike, Instead it causes death and fights. A mother's lad he is, And a mother's lad he was. Up at o'four thirty And down to bed at twenty-two This is a tale of a mother's lad, A mother's lad he was.
