The Wine Flowed Freely

Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson (January 21, 1824 – May 10, 1863) was a Confederate general during the American Civil War, and one of the best-known Confederate commanders after General Robert E. Lee. His military career includes the Valley Campaign of 1862 and his service as a corps commander in the Army of Northern Virginia under Robert E. Lee. Confederate pickets accidentally shot him at the Battle of Chancellorsville on May 2, 1863. The general survived with the loss of an arm to amputation, but died of complications from pneumonia eight days later. His death was a severe setback for the Confederacy, affecting not only its military prospects, but also the morale of its army and of the general public. more »

All the days of my youth I remember so well I lived in a world on my own
Nobody cared where my money came from when I had it I wasn't alone
Oh the wine flowed freely and friendship was mine how they all loved me back then
But here in this prison I sit all alone and now where are all of my friends
[ guitar ]
So drink and be marry if this is your wish of wastin' your life out in sin
But remember someday you may be as I am with nothing not even a friend
Oh the wine flowed freely...
[ piano ]
So here's to the freedom I never shall have I know it's not long till the end
But I'd rather be dead than to spend ninety years
With the cold prison walls for a friend
