Alison Krauss & Union Station - Bright Sunny South Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • From the bright sunny south to the war, I was sent,
  • E'er the days of my boyhood, I scarcely had spent.
  • From it's cool shady forests and deep flowing streams,
  • Ever fond in my mem'ry and sweet in my dreams.
  • Oh, my dear little sister, I still see her tears.
  • When I had to leave home in our tender years.
  • And my sweet gentle mother, so dear to my heart,
  • It grieved me sincerely when we had to part.
  • Said my kind-hearted father as he took my hand:
  • "As you go in defence of our dear native land,
  • "Son, be brave but show mercy whenever you can.
  • "Our hearts will be with you, 'til you 'turn again."
  • In my bag there's a bible to show me the way,
  • Through my twelfth year on earth and to Heaven some day.
  • I will shoulder my musket and brandish my sword,
  • In defence of this land and the word of the Lord...
