《Was My Brother In The Battle?》歌词

[00:00:00] Was My Brother In The Battle? - Douglas Jimerson

[00:00:10] Tell me tell me weary soldier from the rude and stirring wars

[00:00:16] Was my brother in the battle where you gained those noble scars

[00:00:22] He was ever brave and valiant and i know he never fled

[00:00:27] Was his name among the wounded or numbered with the dead

[00:00:34] Was my brother in the battle when the tide of war ran high

[00:00:39] You would know him in a thousand by his dark and flashing eye

[00:00:45] Tell me tell me weary soldier will he never come again

[00:00:51] Did he suffer mid the wounded or die among the slain

[00:01:09] Was my brother in the battle when the noble highland host

[00:01:14] Were so wrongly outnumbered on the carolina coast

[00:01:19] Did he struggle for the union mid the thunder and the rain

[00:01:25] Til he fell among the brave on a bleak virginia plain

[00:01:31] Oh i'm sure that he was dauntless and his courage ne'er would lag

[00:01:37] While contending for the honour of our dear and cherished flag

[00:01:43] Tell me tell me weary soldier will he never come again

[00:01:48] Did he suffer mid the wounded or die among the slain

[00:02:05] Was my brother in the battle when the flag of erin came

[00:02:11] To the rescue of our banner and protection of our fame

[00:02:16] While the fleet from off the waters poured out terror and dismay

[00:02:22] Til the bold and erring foe fell like leaves on an autumn day

[00:02:28] When the bugle called to battle and the cannon deeply roared

[00:02:33] Oh i wish i could have seen him draw his sharp and glittering sword

[00:02:40] Tell me tell me weary soldier will he never come again

[00:02:46] Did he suffer mid the wounded or die among the slain
