Luther left at first light Friday morning  Little Dan and Becky wave good-bye  They're gonna have to share the wait together  Idle hands will see a good fire slowly die. Gone to Shiloh for the Union Shoulder to shoulder, side by side  Gone to Shiloh, hope springs eternal  When flags and bullets start to fly April's come and the air smells fresh with rain  They watched his shadow fade around the bend He's headed for a different kind of thunder  And the stunned surprise in the eyes of dying men Gone to Shiloh for the Union  Shoulder to shoulder, side by side  Gone to Shiloh, time passes slowly  When flags and bullets start to fly The old black rooster sang in death down that dirt road  His steps in bold, his man of fancy free  I pray we see him alive and well in the forehead  In that Godforsaken place in Tennessee Gone to Shiloh for the Union Songtexte Shoulder to shoulder, side by side  Gone to Shiloh, men stand united  When flags and bullets start to fly After all this, if we should prevail  Heaven help the South  When Sherman comes their way  Aus Songtexte Mania
