Gettysburg - Civil War

Leaving all behind

The award is to be found

Like a scene from a dream

And a vision of heavenly might

In the cradle of this war, I know

And that’s for sure

When the battle’s done:

There can be only one

I am marching against evil

May the Lord be on our side

Ready to fight;

fire at will

We shall die in Gettysburg

Ready to fight;

fire at will

People will cry over Gettysburg

This inferno turned me blind

There was fire and smoke all around

Dead bodies and blood everywhere

In this unholy ground

Now the future is no more

We’re all lost to this vicious whore

When the victory’s won

I’m a fatherless son

We went out to fight for glory

Only one of us came home

I sit here on my porch

As an old and lonely man

Sometimes I recall

Whenn terror struck the land

Was it right to go to arms

To defend the freedom rights

I am sure or else I’ve lived upon a lie
