On a cold October's day The battlefield at Gettysburg On a plaque I read my name The wheels of time begin to turn I see the years stripped away I see their lines blue and gray
Chorus:
Down in Gettysburg Saw them fall Bloody Gettysburg Took them all Waited for the word Never came Retreat from Gettysburg
I've seen a lot of wicked things Heard a lot of people cry I know it couldn't touch the pain Of seeing 50,000 die I saw the sun fall away The moon shone white on their graves
Chorus
Billy Yank said good-bye Mother's son left to die Dixieland look away Mother's son died today
Papa fought a bloody war His father in the one before Walking through the haunted field I knew we couldn't give no more I saw the years stripped away I watched men die blue and gray
