"Gettysburg" Lyrics

Leaving all behind the award is to be found
Like a scene from a dream and a vision of heavenly might
In the cradle of this war I know and that's for sure
When the battle's done there can be only one

I am marching out against evil
May the Lord be on our side

Ready to fight
Fire at will
We shall die at Gettysburg
Ready to fight
(Ready to fight)
Fire at will
(Fire at will)
People will cry at Gettysburg

This inferno turned me blind there was fire and smoke all around
Dead bodies and blood everywhere on this unholy ground
Now the future is no more we're all lost to this vicious whore
When the victory's won I'm a fatherless son

We went out to fight for glory
Only one of us came home

Ready to fight
Fire at will
We shall die at Gettysburg
Ready to fight
(Ready to fight)
Fire at will
(Fire at will)
People will cry over Gettysburg

As I sit here on my porch as an old and lonely man
Sometimes I recall when terror struck the land
Was it right to go to arms to defend the freedom rights
I am sure or else I've lived upon a lie

Ready to fight
Fire at will
We shall die at Gettysburg
Ready to fight
(Ready to fight)
Fire at will
(Fire at will)
People will cry over Gettysburg

Ready to fight
Fire at will
People will cry over Gettysburg
