The Battle of the Blue and the Grey

歌詞

[Chorus] Now it's gone ,gone , gone Those years have passed away It's gone , gone , gone There's truth in what I say It's gone , gone , gone There's nothing more to say But I'd do anything if I could do it all again Well, I'm an old man now and I'm born to win the race People won't believe me but there's truth in what I say Many hearts were broken and a lot of tears were shed The sky was black and the battlefield was red [Chorus] But I'd do anything if I could do it all again Now ,Stonewall Jackson stepped right up and then he said to me He said "The battle's gettin' rough son, guess we better flee. There's grapeshot all around us and the field is black with lead. You better start a-runnin' boy before you lose your head" [Chorus] But I'd do anything if I could do it all again Well, the cannons roared around us and the field was black with lead I picked a soldier dressed in blue and filled him full of lead I picked out six more soldiers there a-sittin' on a mound I fixed my bayonet to my gun and really mowed them down [Chorus] But I'd do anything if I could do it all again But I'd do anything if I could do it all again
