My Father's Gun - Rhythm On The Radio[00:00:00]
From this day on I own[00:00:35]
My father's gun[00:00:39]
We dug his shallow[00:00:44]
Grave beneath the sun[00:00:46]
I laid his broken body down[00:00:52]
Below the southern land[00:00:56]
It wouldn't do to bury him[00:01:01]
Where any Yankee stands[00:01:05]
I'll take my horse and I'll[00:01:09]
Ride the Northern plain[00:01:11]
To wear the colour of the[00:01:18]
Greys and join the fight again[00:01:20]
And I'll rest until I know the[00:01:26]
Cause is fought and won[00:01:30]
From this day on until I die[00:01:34]
I'll wear my father's gun[00:01:39]
I'd like to know where the[00:01:43]
Riverboat sails tonight[00:01:45]
To New Orleans well[00:01:51]
That's just fine alright[00:01:53]
'Cause there's fightin' there[00:01:59]
And the company needs men[00:02:01]
So slip us a rope and sail[00:02:07]
On round the bend[00:02:10]
As soon as this is over[00:02:21]
We'll go home[00:02:24]
To plant the seeds of justice[00:02:28]
In our bones[00:02:31]
To watch the children growin'[00:02:37]
And see the women sewin'[00:02:40]
There'll be laughter when the[00:02:44]
Bells of freedom ring[00:02:46]
I'd like to know where the[00:02:53]
Riverboat sails tonight[00:02:55]
To New Orleans well that's[00:03:01]
