There’s a pew in Normandy
With blood on its face
           Good men died here
 in this sacred place 

All these years
        The pew has remained red
With the blood of Americans 
      Laid down as they bled

If you go there today
          You’ll still find
Blood of American servicemen
       Stood the test of time

That old bench 
                    Weathered you’ll find 
Where many a good man 
          Laid down upon its pine
