Missionary Ridge
It was a faction of the Army of the Cumberland, the 15th Army Corp Just a few years back were a bunch of boys that never left home before But the shame of Chickamauga, so hungry they could almost die Without any order from the General, they clamored up the mountain side Clamored up the mountain side Don't go whistling Dixie on Missionary Ridge Don't call to arms those poltergeists, open up the casket lid You'll wake those boys to wander among the old carnage So don't go whistling Dixie on Missionary Ridge On the 25th of November it happened in the broad daylight Gazing down on Chattanooga, Bragg could not foresee the fight Out numbered by the blue coats 2-to-1, he tucked his tail to flee The Union broke the Confederate line and marched out to the sea Marched out to the sea Don't go whistling Dixie on Missionary Ridge Don't call to arms those poltergeists, open up the casket lid You'll wake those boys to wander among the old carnage So don't go whistling Dixie on Missionary Ridge In the stillness of the morning, when you breath that mountain air The chill that you will feel, reminds you what happened there When the light drips down the mountain, and the fog lifts from its face The darkness of that memory lies buried in a sunny place Letras de canciones Don't go whistling Dixie on Missionary Ridge Don't call to arms those poltergeists, open up the casket lid You'll wake those boys to wander among the old carnage So don't go whistling Dixie on Missionary Ridge From Letras Mania
