Dixieland - Steve Earle[00:00:00]
I am Kilrain and I'm a fighting man and[00:00:12]
I come from County Clare[00:00:15]
And the Brits would hang me for a Fenian[00:00:17]
So I took me leave of there[00:00:19]
And I crossed the ocean in the[00:00:22]
Arrianne the vilest tub afloat[00:00:23]
And the captain's brother was a railroad man and he met us the boat[00:00:27]
So I joined up with the 20th Maine like I said my friend I'm a fighting man[00:00:32]
And we're marching south in the pouring[00:00:37]
Rain and we're all goin' down to Dixieland[00:00:39]
I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and we fight for Chamberlain[00:00:54]
'Cause he stood right with us when[00:00:59]
The Johnnies came like a banshee on the wind[00:01:00]
When the smoke cleared out of[00:01:04]
Gettysburg many a mother wept[00:01:05]
For many a good boy died there sure[00:01:09]
And the air smelted just like death[00:01:11]
I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and I'd march to hell and back again[00:01:14]
For Colonel Joshua Chamberlain[00:01:19]
We're all going down to Dixieland[00:01:21]
I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and I damn all gentlemen[00:01:46]
Whose only worth is their father's name and the sweat of a working man[00:01:51]
Well we come from the farms and the city streets and a hundred foreign lands[00:01:56]
And we spilled our blood in the battle's heat[00:02:01]
Now we're all Americans[00:02:03]
I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and did I tell you friend I'm a fighting man[00:02:09]
And I'll not be back this way again[00:02:12]
'Cause we're all goin' down to Dixieland[00:02:15]
