Luther left us first light friday morning

Little dan and becky waved goodbye

They're gonna have to share the weight together

Idle hands will see a good farm slowly die

Chorus

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

The old black rooster sang him down that dirt road

His step seemed bold, his manner fancy-free

I pray we see him alive and well in the fall here

Than that god-forsaken place in tennessee

[Repeat chorus]

After all of this

If we should prevail

Heaven help the south

When sherman comes their way
