Lyrics
Song: "Mother's Anthem/As One"
Newspaper lists their names
More of our boys are going away
Mothers can you bear it
Seeing how you bled
And how you carried them all the way
You see our sons come as one
Your wars, they come in pairs
Newspaper lists their names
More of our boys are going away
Each day the priests will pray
More reminders of the games you'd play
Sisters can you take it
Knowing you're the one
Who'll have to carry on their names
You see our sons come as one
Your wars, they come in pairs
Newspaper lists their names
More of our boys are going away
