lyrics

A call to arms 1861
I worked my farm, more work than I could get done
They need more men on the battle line to take their place
I’m a man of peace but for these enemies, it’s a fight I will embrace

I’ll take a walk

They formed our camp. we marched in lines
Had boots in grey, thick soles to help for the winter time
Us western men wore our hats in black to show our pride
Off to the east we’ll march to prove our worth and watch the sun erase the night

I’ll take a walk

At Brawner’s farm, we took our first shots
Met Jackson’s men up three to one on us from the start
I walk in the eyes of Jesus Christ, I know no other way
But I’ll split three men, they taught me how, and hold my rifle straight

I’ll take a walk

I’ll pick up the pieces of my faith
Pick up the pieces of my faith
I’ll pick up the pieces of my faith
Pick up the pieces of my faith

I got shot at Devil’s Den, picked up before the day
Sent south by track, I lost my strength along the way
Spent the last long months in Libby’s cell surrounded by men alone
I’ll keep my bible close, cause the path I’ll take from here won’t guide me home

I’ll take a walk
