Now it’s gone ,gone , goneThose years have passed awayIt’s gone , gone , goneThere’s truth in what I sayIt’s gone , gone , goneThere’s nothing more to sayBut I’d do anything if I could do it all againWell, I’m an old man now and I’m born to win the racePeople won’t believe me but there’s truth in what I sayMany hearts were broken and a lot of tears were shedThe sky was black and the battlefield was redNow it’s gone , gone , goneThose years have passed awayIt’s gone , gone , goneThere’s truth in what I sayIt’s gone , gone , goneThere’s nothing more to saBut I’d do anything if I could do it all againNow ,stonewall jackson stepped right up and then he said to meHe said the battle’s gettin’ rough son, guess we better flee.There’s grapeshot all around us and the field is black with lead.You better start a-runnin’ boy before you lose your head .It’s gone , gone , goneThose years have passed awayIt’s gone , gone , goneThere’s truth in what I sayIt’s gone , gone , goneThere’s nothing more to sayBut I’d do anything if I could do it all againWell, the cannons roared around us and the field was black with leadI picked a soldier dressed in blue and filled him full of leadI picked out six more soldiers there a-sittin’ on a moundI fixed my bayonet to my gun and really mowed them downNow, it’s gone , gone , goneThose years have passed awayIt’s gone , gone , goneThere’s truth in what I sayIt’s gone , gone , goneThere’s nothing more to sayBut I’d do anything if I could do it all againBut I’d do anything if I could do it all again
