Jook Bourke - A Redhead from Chesapeake Bay lyrics
I'm a Pennsylvania boy Born Bread and raised But I moved south of the Mason Dixon Line To join the war between the states I'm not talkin bout the Civil War Though it's civil in a way I'm talkin bout the war I had with A red head from Chesapeake Bay And a wise man once told me why General Lee ordered Pickett's charge He said, sometimes you take the fight, if the prize is very large My father was an Irishman And always used to say You should never try to pick a fight But never run away That advice was a bit of trouble Not the best he ever gave But it changed my life When I battled with A red head from Chesapeake Bay And a wise man once told me why General Lee ordered Pickett's charge He said, sometimes you take the fight, when the prize is very large Her father was a Frenchman It seemed to me he was always right He told me that she had a faint heart He didn't mention her other sides And in love, just like in war A great admiration can arise And a red head from Chesapeake Bay Can turn out to be your bride And a wise man once told me why General Lee ordered Pickett's charge He said, sometimes you take the fight, when the prize is very large |
