Silver Dew On The Bluegrass Tonight
Ed Burt
The Moon was softly Shining
On an old Kentucky Home
The Fragrance of Magnolia filled the Air
A lonely Girl was writing
To her Sweetheart 'cross the Foam
May God protect you Darling over There
Silver Dew On The Bluegrass To night
How it Shines in the Moon's Silver Light
Soldier Boy so far from Me
How I Wish that I could See
Silver Dew On The Bluegrass Tonight
Stars of Gold on the old Flag Tonight
While you Fight for the Cause that is Right
You will Keep that Flag on High
For those Boys who've had to Die
Stars of Gold on the old Flag Tonight
Silver Dew On The Bluegrass Tonight
While I Pray you'll come Safe thru the Fight
Close your Eyes and Think of Me
And my Darling you will See
Silver Dew On The Bluegrass Tonight
