Sergeant MacKenzie

In honor of those who have served, Sergeant MacKenzie:

Lay me down in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone
Lay me down in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone

When they come I will stand my ground
Stand my ground Ill not be afraid

Thoughts of home take away my fear
Sweat and blood hide my veil of tears

Once a year say a prayer for me
Close your eyes and remember me

Never more shall I see the sun
For I fell to a Germans gun

Lay me down in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone
Lay me down in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone

Where before many more have gone

This arrangement was taken from the Soundtrack of We Were Soldiers Once - And Young.  Well worth your time on a Memorial Day.

Sergeant MacKenzie
