Sgt (Sergeant) MacKenzie
Lay me down, in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone
Lay me down, in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone
When they come I will stand my ground
Stand my ground I will not be afraid
Thoughts of home take away my fear
Sweat and blood hide my veil of tears
Once a year say a prayer for me
Close your eyes and remember me
Never more shall I see the sun
For I fell to a German's gun
Lay me down, in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone
Lay me down, in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone
Where before many more have gone...

Über den Übersetzer
Written by Joseph Kilna MacKenzie in memory of his great-grandfather, Charles Stuart MacKenzie of the Seaforth Highlanders (Moray, Scotland). He was killed in action in World War I. The couplet that speaks of falling to a German's gun is often omitted so that the song remains pertinent to other conflicts.
