We Used to Stand so Tall

Lyrics

Hush now darling my momma said
 Your daddy's worried bout the rents(?)
 One day you'll learn about the enemy
 You have to fight so you'll be free
 Another day will dawn
 Our country will be strong
 God knows we can't go wrong
 Be good darling do as we say
 One day you'll learn to work for pay
 And you will understand that we are poor
 You must work hard so you'll have more
 Another day will dawn
 You will grow up so strong
 We know you will be long
 Listen father there is no work
 It seems that no one sees my worth
 I have no money to pay my rent
 I cannot pay back what was lent
 Listen mother I lost my man
 He was shot down in a foreign land
 The captain cannot see what he died for
 They only tell me we're at war
 Another time will come
 You'll see what we have done
 I only hope we may be forgiven
 Another rain will fall
 And wash away our song(?)
 We used to stand so tall 3x
