Six Men Riding

[Verse 1] Six men riding at great speed Horses wet with foam. Through the forest down the hill Riding for their homes. Riding for their homes tonight Riding for their homes. [Chorus] "Hush! Hush!" The mother sings "Dreams will come and find you." "Hush! Hush!" The mother sings "Dreams will come and find you." [Verse 2] Six men lately from the war Six men fought so bravely. Six men coming home again Six remain from eighty. Six men out of eighty lived Six men out of eighty. [Chorus] "Hush! Hush!" The mother sings "Dreams will come and find you." "Hush! Hush!" The mother sings "Dreams will come and find you." [Verse 3] Six men home to plow the fields Six to plant the corn. Six pretty ladies to weep for joy And seventy-four to mourn. Seventy-four to mourn and weep Seventy-four to mourn. [Chorus] "Hush! Hush!" The mother sings "Dreams will come and find you." "Hush! Hush!" The mother sings "Dreams will come and find you."
