lirik lagu david kincaid - the departure of the 69th volunteers
[instrumental]
[intro]
the gallant sixty~ninth, once more, goes to the battlefield, to leave the enemy in gore and make jeff davis yield
[verse]
it goes a volunteer regiment, composed of the same men
led on by colonel nugent, instead of corcoran
[verse]
we are sorry that poor corcoran, in rebel hands must lie
and that he can’t command those men, as he did in july
[verse]
but we hope he shall soon return, to his friends and fair wife
and that we’ll have no cause to mourn, the loss of his dear life
[instrumental]
[verse]
we wish those brave sons of ireland success where e’er they be!
to us they’ve given a strong hand, by land as well as sea
[verse]
their valor, it has oft been shown, on foreign lands afar; we have seen it here, at bull~run: and there, at trafalgar
[verse]
then, let us all cheer up again, and hope soon to have peace!
while with us we have old erin, we’ll gain it with much ease
[verse]
farewell! farewell! brave sixty~ninth! till you return to our shores!
your departure does us remind, of poor ireland in yore!
your departure does us remind, of poor ireland in yore!
[instrumental]
