[Verse 1]
Through a stained-glass morning
They're diggin' in the green grass again
Who's that mournin'?
I have seen her face somewhere, but when?
[Chorus]
We'll fold up the flag that was coverin' him
Give it to the woman that was lovin' him
And whisper that he died defendin' her liberty
But they'll lay him six feet down
In some far-off piece of ground
With one stone markin' him
Where three should be
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause they'll never give her back
The song he could sing
And they'll never give her back
The child he could bring
And they'll never give her back
The brother they took from me
[Verse 2]
Through a stained-glass mornin'
A thousand years have greened the grass again
In the rain now I hang mournin'
The face I couldn't recognize then
Through a stained-glass morning
They're diggin' in the green grass again
Who's that mournin'?
I have seen her face somewhere, but when?
[Chorus]
We'll fold up the flag that was coverin' him
Give it to the woman that was lovin' him
And whisper that he died defendin' her liberty
But they'll lay him six feet down
In some far-off piece of ground
With one stone markin' him
Where three should be
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause they'll never give her back
The song he could sing
And they'll never give her back
The child he could bring
And they'll never give her back
The brother they took from me
[Verse 2]
Through a stained-glass mornin'
A thousand years have greened the grass again
In the rain now I hang mournin'
The face I couldn't recognize then
