In The Summer Of His Years / Rally Round The Flag (medley)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A young man rode with his head held high
Under the Texas Sun
And no one guessed that a man so blessed
Would perish by the gun
A shot rang out like a sudden shout
And Heaven held its breath
And the dreams of a multitude of men
Went with him to his death
The heart of a world weighs heavy
With the helplessness of tears
For a man shot down in the Texas Sun
In the summer of his years
Oh, we'll rally 'round the flag
Yes, we'll rally once again
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
Yes, we'll rally 'round the flag
And we'll rally once again
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
A Union forever
Hurrah, boys, hurrah
A Union forever
And up with a star
And we'll rally 'round the flag
Yes, we'll rally once again
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
