Cannons are roaring down in the green valley Smoke rising into a fog Uniforms and horses are splattered with colors Men howl at heaven like dogs In the afternoon sun I stand breathing slowly Musket is cold in my hands We wait for the sword to point down the valley And I try not to shake if I can The front of the line is long like a railroad Back about eighty men deep Remembering their mothers and praying for salvation And there's nothing in this world they can keep The late summer breeze is soft like a lady Lovingly holding my face When the deafening explosion from a cannon behind me Drags my mind back to this place We start down the hill as the orders are hollered Raising our weapons to aim When the smell of skin and cotton burnt by gunpowder Just makes me want to be home again A chorus of rifles like a thousand branches snapping Sprays out a choir of led And men of every color start falling like towers And I dropped my weapon and fled Swiftly I'm running through the bodies and the screaming Splashing red mud on my pants When through all the commotion a bullet found my body And I try to keep moving but I can't Sounds are now fading down in the green valley The wind is soft like a lamb Tell mama when dying my last thoughts were of her And tell papa I fought like a man
