The Orphan Brigade


When this war was beginning it was all to God we trust
We fought to change this falling land where sleeps our father’s dust
We would not be dissevered and it cost us bloody wars
So we never will give up the land where floats the stripes and stars

Hurrah hurrah, hurrah hurrah
Hurrah hurrah, for equal rights hurrah
Hurrah for the good old flag, hurrah for the good old flag
Hurrah for the good old flag that bears the stripes and stars
Hurrah, hurrah

We know our cause is holy, we know we’re in the right
When all but one per cent of us stand ready for the fight
Our pride is ole Kentucky up north in Baltimore
We’ll fly the flag in Tennessee till no free man is poor

Hurrah hurrah, hurrah hurrah
Hurrah hurrah, for equal rights hurrah
Hurrah for the good old flag, hurrah for the good old flag
Hurrah for the good old flag that bears the stripes and stars
Hurrah, hurrah

The time for fighting’s over, it’s time to come back home
Spread kindness to our brothers wherever they may roam
Let’s pledge the hand of friendship and think no more of war
To live in peace beneath the flag that bears the stripes and stars
