Great Big Sea lyrics : "General Taylor"

Well General Taylor gained the day
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
Well General Taylor he gained the day

Carry him to his bury'n ground

[Chorus:]


Tell me way, hey, you stormy
Walk him along, John, carry him along

Tel me way, hey, you stormy
Carry him to his bury'n ground


We'll dig his grave with a silver spade
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
His shroud of the finest silk will be made

Carry him to his bury'n ground

[Chorus]


We'll lower him down on a golden chain
Walk him along, John, Carry him along

On every inch we'll carve his name
Carry him to his bury'n ground


[Chorus]

General Taylor he's all the go

Walk him along, John, Carry him along
He's gone where the stormy winds won't blow
Carry him to his bury'n ground


[Chorus]


General Taylor he's dead and he's gone
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
Well General Taylor he's long dead and gone

Carry him to his bury'n ground

[Chorus 2x]
