I Won't Be Sorry To See Suzanne Again

歌詞

The place, Appomattox, Virginia the year 1865 Unable to maintain supplies of food and ammunition The Southern rebels finally raise the White flag of surrender General Robert E. Lee steps forward with General Grant of the Northern Yankees To sign a truce that ends the American Civil War. The clouds of battle slowly drift away I must get down on my knees and pray I thank the Lord it's over, I live to see once more The roses climbing †̃round the old back door And I won't be sorry to see Suzanne again In heaven, since Lord I can't remember when Can't remember when I only hope the she still wants me And I won't be sorry to see the lights of our home I'm dying to see the sweetest girl I know Man I've been so low Lord I won't be sorry to see you Suzanne For Five long years this old sad heart of mine Has yearned to cross that Mason Dixie Line But there'll be no returnin' for my brothers Who have died And I feel the burning emptiness inside But I won't be sorry to see Suzanne again In heaven, since Lord I can't remember when Can't remember when I only hope that she still wants me No I won't be sorry to see the lights of home I'm dying to see the sweetest girl I know Man I've been so low Lord I won't be sorry to see you Suzanne....
