Jim Ed Brown and the Browns "The Grass Is Red" |
(Don Christopher - Ted Cooper) The grass is red, the grass is red Red with the blood that was shed Shed by men who now are dead Fighting the grass is red. The ground is a bed A bed for soldiers to lay their heads Heads that should have been used For peace instead of fighting, fighting. Time and people go on But our fathers and brothers are gone And until children are taught The meaning of the word friends. The grass will be red again And again, and again. The grass was made green The air was made clean And land, land was born to live in peace But somewhere the grass is red. The grass is red, the grass is red Red with the blood that was shed Shed by men who now are dead Fighting the grass is red. The ground is a bed A bed for soldiers to lay their heads Heads that should have been used For peace instead of fighting, fighting. The ground is a bed A bed for soldiers to lay their heads Heads that should have been used For peace instead of fighting, fighting. Time and people go on But our fathers and brothers are gone And until children are taught The meaning of the word friends. The grass will be red again And again, and again...
