ThDe night was icy cold I stood aAlong
I was waiting for an A7army foot pDatrol
AndD when at last they came within my Asight
I squeezed the trigger of my armaDlite


Oh Dmama, oh mama comfort Ame
I know these awful thiA7ngs have got to Dbe
But Dwhen the war for freedom has been Awon
I promise you I'll put away my Dgun.


A sDhot rang out, I heard a soldier Acry
"Oh please don't leave me A7here alone tDo die"
I Drealized his patrol had run Aaway
And left their wounded comrade for me to Dslay.


Oh Dmama, oh mama comfort Ame
I know these awful thiA7ngs have got to Dbe
But Dwhen the war for freedom has been Awon
I promise you I'll put away my Dgun.


"There's Dnothing in this world I would not Agive
If mercy in your A7heart would let me Dlive"
And in his Deyes I saw a burning Aflame
As my gun it slowly fell towaDrds his brain.


Oh Dmama, oh mama comfort Ame
I know these awful thiA7ngs have got to Dbe
But Dwhen the war for freedom has been Awon
I promise you I'll put away my Dgun.


The Ddawn was breaking as I reached my Abase
Can't forget the lookA7 on that boy's Dface
Fear, agony, and Dtorment they all Awere there
Oh but to your memory, mother, his life I Dspared.


Oh Dmama, oh mama comfort Ame
I know these awful thiA7ngs have got to Dbe
But Dwhen the war for freedom has been Awon
I promise you I'll put away my Dgun.

AI promise you I'll put away my Dgun.
