A life on the Vicksburg bluff, |
[00:12.330] |
A home in the trenches deep, |
[00:14.331] |
Where we dodge "Yank" shells enough, |
[00:16.386] |
And our old "pea-bread" won't keep. |
[00:18.340] |
On "old Logan's" beef I pine, |
[00:20.298] |
For there's fat on his bones no more |
[00:22.772] |
Oh! give me some pork and brine, |
[00:25.470] |
And truck from a sutlers store. |
[00:28.173] |
A life on the Vicksburg bluff, |
[00:30.410] |
A home in the trenches deep, |
[00:32.599] |
When we dodge "Yank" shells enough, |
[00:34.657] |
And our old pea-bread won't keep, |
[00:36.801] |
Pea-bread Pea-bread, our old pea-bread won't keep. |
[00:41.137] |
Pea-bread Pea-bread, our old pea-bread won't keep. |
[00:45.517] |
Old Grant is starving us out, |
[00:47.711] |
Our grub is fast wasting away, |
[00:49.476] |
Pemb' don't know what he's about, |
[00:51.668] |
And he hasn't for many a day, |
[00:53.903] |
So we'll bury "old Logan" tonight, |
[00:55.957] |
From tough beef we'll be set free |
[00:58.105] |
We'll put him far out of sight, |
[01:01.002] |
No more of his meat for me. |
[01:04.274] |
A life on the Vicksburg bluff, |
[01:06.230] |
A home in the trenches deep, |
[01:08.287] |
When we dodge "Yank" shells enough, |
[01:10.526] |
And our old pea-bread won't keep, |
[01:12.718] |
Pea-bread Pea-bread, our old pea-bread won't keep. |
[01:16.972] |
Pea-bread Pea-bread, our old pea-bread won't keep. |
[01:20.983] |
Texas steers are no longer in view, |
[01:22.941] |
Mule steaks are now "done up 'brown, " |
[01:25.080] |
While peabread, mule roast and mule stew, |
[01:27.485] |
Is our fare in Vicksburg town; |
[01:29.484] |
And the song of our hearts shall be, |
[01:31.531] |
While the Yanks and their gunboats rave; |
[01:33.955] |
A life in a bomb-proof for me, |
[01:36.749] |
And a tear on "old Logan's" grave. |
[01:39.867] |
A life on the Vicksburg bluff, |
[01:41.971] |
A home in the trenches deep, |
[01:44.202] |
When we dodge "Yank" shells enough, |
[01:46.350] |
And our old pea-bread won't keep, |
[01:48.539] |
Pea-bread Pea-bread, our old pea-bread won't keep. |
[01:52.869] |
Pea-bread Pea-bread, our old pea-bread won't keep. |
[01:57.111] |
Like a rebel caged I pine |
[01:59.304] |
And I dodge when the cannons roar |
[02:01.309] |
If they give me corn dodgers and swine |
[02:03.591] |
And I'll stay forever more |
[02:05.735] |
Once more in the trench I stand |
[02:07.552] |
With my own far-ranging gun |
[02:09.842] |
Should the fray come hand to hand |
[02:11.757] |
Yes? I'll wager my rations, I run! |
[02:15.255] |
A life on the Vicksburg bluff, |
[02:17.253] |
A home in the trenches deep, |
[02:19.454] |
When we dodge "Yank" shells enough, |
[02:21.558] |
And our old pea-bread won't keep, |
[02:23.881] |
Pea-bread Pea-bread, our old pea-bread won't keep. |
[02:28.216] |
Pea-bread Pea-bread, our old pea-bread won't keep. |
[02:32.271] |
The trenches no longer in view |
[02:34.649] |
The shells begun to fall |
[02:36.700] |
Tis' the sound I hate. Don't you? |
[02:38.756] |
Into my rat hole I'll crawl |
[02:40.990] |
The bullets may wistle by |
[02:42.809] |
And the terrible bombs come down |
[02:45.046] |
But give me full rations, and I |
[02:47.935] |
We'll stay in my hole in the ground |
[02:51.066] |
A life on the Vicksburg bluff, |
[02:53.391] |
A home in the trenches deep, |
[02:55.492] |
When we dodge "Yank" shells enough, |
[02:57.542] |
And our old pea-bread won't keep, |
[02:59.785] |
Pea-bread Pea-bread, our old pea-bread won't keep. |
[03:04.115] |
Pea-bread Pea-bread, our old pea-bread won't keep. |
