Tune of The Battle Hymn of the Republic

Mine eyes have seen the gory
Of the coming of the North
We are shooting at them left and right
Where they hide and where they fight
We're losing but we know we're right
The Gettysburg battle is
The turning of the war

Chorus
Killed! Dead! In large numbers!
Killed! Dead! In large numbers!
Killed! Dead! In large numbers
Rob Lee is marching on!

Mine ears have heard the story
Of the coming of the South
We are riding on to them high and low
Searching for our terrible foe
I'm fighting my kin don't you know
The fight in Gettysburg
Turns the Civil War

Chorus
Killed! Dead! In large numbers!
Killed! Dead! In large numbers!
Killed! Dead! In large numbers!
John Meade is marching on!
