We Were Marching on Christmas Day

The Orphan Brigade

The Orphan Brigade


Frozen ground, oh holy night
Bring me back from the fight to my sweet young bride
Dream of her waiting underneath
Mistletoe, in the glow of our family tree

We were marching, We were marching
As the snow fell on the clay
We were marching, We were marching
We were marching on Christmas Day

Heroes died the easy way
Men who live walk the fire in the woods ablaze
Hear the bells of Christmas ring
Are they for you are they for me
until our time we'll sing

We were marching, We were marching
As the snow fell on the clay
We were marching, We were marching
We were marching on Christmas Day

If this be my last Noel
Don't let my Kentucky blood spill into hell
Bethlehem, set me free
By your star in the sky I will look to thee

We were marching, We were marching
As the snow fell on the clay
We were marching, We were marching
We were marching on Christmas Day
