Current song lyrics
From this day on I own my father's gun<br />We dug his shallow grave beneath the sun<br />I laid his broken body down below the southern land<br />It wouldn't do to bury him where any Yankee stands<br /><br />I'll take my horse and I'll ride the northern plain<br />To wear the colour of the greys and join the fight again<br />I'll not rest until I know the cause is fought and won<br />From this day on until I die I'll wear my father's gun<br /><br />[Chorus]:<br />I'd like to know where the riverboat sails tonight<br />To New Orleans well that's just fine alright<br />`Cause there's fighting there and the company needs men<br />So slip us a rope and sail on round the bend<br /><br />As soon as this is over we'll go home<br />To plant the seeds of justice in our bones<br />To watch the children growing and see the women sewing<br />There'll be laughter when the bells of freedom ring<br /><br />[repeat chorus x5]
