Well General Taylor gained the day
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
Well General Taylor gained the day
Carry him to his bury'n ground
Tell me way, hey, you stormy
Walk him along, John, carry him along
Tel me way, hey, you stormy
Carry him to his bury'n ground
We'll dig his grave with a silver spade
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
His shroud of the finest silk will be made
Carry him to his bury'n ground
We'll lower him down with a golden chain
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
On every inch we'll carve his name
Carry him to his bury'n ground
Well General Taylor died long ago
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
He's gone where the stormy winds don't blow
Carry him to his bury'n ground |
