I am Kilrain and I'm a fightin' manAnd I come from County ClareAnd the brits would hang me for a fenian So I took me leave of thereAnd I crossed the ocean in the "Arrianne"The vilest tub afloatAnd the captain's brother was a railroad man and he met us at the boatSo I joined up with the 20th MaineLike I said my friend I'm a fighting manAnd we're marchin' south in the pouring rainAnd we're all goin' down to dixielandI am Kilrain of the 20th MaineAnd we fight for Chamberlain'Cause he stood right with us When the johnnies came like a banshee on the windWhen the smoke cleared out of Gettysburg many a mother weptFor many a good boy died there, sureAnd the air smelted just like death[Chorus]I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine And I'd march to hell and back againFor colonel Joshua ChamberlainWe're all goin' down to dixielandLetras de cancionesI am Kilrain of the 20th MaineAnd I damn all gentlemenWhose only worth is their father's nameAnd the sweat of a workin' manWell we come from the farms And the city streets and a hundred foreign landsAnd we spilled our blood in the battle's heatNow we're all Americans[Chorus] From Letras Mania
