	Story Behind the Song I wrote this song to remember Peter Grant Vc who drowned in the Tay river Dundee.He won His Victoria Cross In India Lucknow 1857 defending the Queens colours,Killed five sepoys with one of there own swords.He lies in an unmarked grave in Dundee. Lyrics The Colour Green Long long ago on a stary christmas night years before you and I on a beach by a river close to the Dee a brave young lad had died No one seemed to know him Nobody seemed to care Robert Annan would have saved him If hed been there and they found upon his chest the ribbons of a quest of a man who had been to war Oh for the Valour we'll stand and gather By Dundee red white and blue was his colours even though his heart was green From Sebastopol to India Argyll's have fought and died a brave loyal soldier the colour green in his eyes So many years later lying in an unmarked grave i found the green of Ireland by the banks of the river Tay Words and Music by H.Booth.
