가사
(Verse 1)
In eighteen sixty-one, the storm began to rise,
A nation torn asunder, beneath the same skies.
Brothers turned to enemies, in fields of blue and gray,
The echoes of their footsteps, still heard today.
(Chorus)
Oh, the Civil War, where freedom fought in strife,
A tale of pain and glory, the cost of human life.
From Sumter to Appomattox, the cannons’ roar did sound,
The Civil War, where our divided souls were bound.
(Verse 2)
Lincoln spoke of union, a house that could not stand,
Against the bonds of slavery, he took a mighty stand.
The South sought independence, a cause they held so dear,
But in the name of liberty, the fight would bring them tears.
(Chorus)
Oh, the Civil War, where freedom fought in strife,
A tale of pain and glory, the cost of human life.
From Bull Run to Antietam, blood soaked the ground,
The Civil War, where our divided souls were bound.
(Bridge)
Gettysburg’s great turning, a bloody three-day fight,
With Pickett’s Charge, the Union held, beneath the smoke and night.
Atlanta’s flames and Sherman's march, a path of burning land,
Reconstruction's promise, in a war-torn land.
(Verse 3)
Lee surrendered at Appomattox, in eighteen sixty-five,
The nation breathed a heavy sigh, a hope to now revive.
Amendments wrote new futures, in the ink of battle’s end,
A scarred but united country, on which we'd now depend.
(Chorus)
Oh, the Civil War, where freedom fought in strife,
A tale of pain and glory, the cost of human life.
From Sumter to Appomattox, the cannons’ roar did sound,
The Civil War, where our divided souls were bound.
(Outro)
In the pages of our history, their sacrifices stay,
Lessons learned in blood and tears, that guide us on our way.
The Civil War, a memory, etched in the heart’s core,
A reminder of the price of peace, forevermore.
