Let the Red Fern Grow
Let the red fern grow
let it grow wild
over the body of the child
the bodies of the children
that shall never breath again
let the red fern grow
let it grow now
as sweat gathers on my brow
as I fill in the hole
a pain one cannot condole
Let the red fern grow
and say goodbye
to those who had to die
much too soon
wrapped in death’s cocoon
