Was My Brother In The Battle (Album Version) - Kate & Anna McGarrigle[00:00:00]

Written by：S.C. Foster[00:00:01]

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

Was my brother in the battle where you gained those noble scars[00:00:17]

He was ever brave and valiant[00:00:27]

And I know he never fled[00:00:31]

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[00:00:43]

You would know him in a more by his dark and flashing eye[00:00:50]

Tell me tell me weary soldier[00:01:00]

Will he never come again[00:01:03]

Did he suffer with the wounded or die among the slain[00:01:07]

Was my brother in the battle when the noble highland host[00:01:16]

Were so wrongly out numbered on the Carolina coast[00:01:23]

Did he struggle for the Union with the thunder and the rain[00:01:32]

'Til he fell among the brave on a bleak Virginia plain[00:01:39]

Oh I'm sure that he was dauntless and his courage never lag[00:01:48]

While contending for the honour of our dear and cherished flag[00:01:55]

Tell me tell me weary soldier[00:02:04]

Will he never come again[00:02:08]

Did he suffer with the wounded or die among the slain[00:02:12]

Was my brother in the battle when the flag of Erin came[00:02:21]

To the rescue of our banner and protection of our fame[00:02:28]

While the fleet from off the waters poured out terror and dismay[00:02:37]

'Til the bold and erring foe fell like leaves on an Autumn day[00:02:44]

When the bugle called to battle and the cannon deeply roared[00:02:54]

Oh I wish I could have seen him draw his sharp and glittering sword[00:03:01]

Tell me tell me weary soldier[00:03:10]

Will he never come again[00:03:14]

Did he suffer with the wounded or die among the slain[00:03:17]
