1864
Private Lonsway reportin' for duty
October 12th Eighteen Sixty Three
Ran away to Company D
Twentieth Regiment New York Cavalry
Rebels stampeded five hundred cattle
Our mission was search and destroy
Daybreak 4th of July
Jumped upon those rebs with a battle cry
There was a freight train loaded with supplies
Corporal Jenkins volunteered to drive
Quarter mile from Blackwater he realized
Retreating troops set the bridge on fire
We jumped off as the train plunged in
Saw a big barge on the other side
Captain Ford said, Joe, I want that lighter
I hate to send you, for chances are you'll die
1864 Son tell them what grampa did in the war
1864 That's what I got my medal for
I stripped off my clothes and told Jenkins

If I don't come back write my folks and tell them
Then I put my body under water
Swam on my back towards other shore
Gunfire thick as rain fell all around
All the way across I heard that sound
Looking for the chance I finally found
Climbed on the scow & got it unbound
1864 Tell them what your grampa did in the war
1864 That's what I got this medal for
On the bank a rebel found me
Snuck behind on hands and knees
Put his pistol to my head
When my boy shot that fella dead
1864 Son tell them what your grampa did in the war
1864 Long long ago in the Civil War
1864 Tell them what your grampa did in the war
1864 That's what I got this medal for
