Well that old stone house is standin'
In the middle of the nell
Yes that old stone house is standin'
Where my brother used to dwell
Well my family's split in two
By that Mason-Dix'n knife
Yes my family's split in two
By that Mason-Dixie knife
CHORUS:
Well we stormed the hill at Potter's Point, like lightnin'
from the sky
And I shot my brother dead before I ever saw his eyes...
And I swore right then and there, never to again
Yes I swore right then and there, never to again
Well I walked a thousand miles and my boots are showin'
skin
And if I walk a thousand more I'll never kill again
And you can call me what you want, but a coward's what I
am
Yes you can call me what you want, but a coward's what I
am
Well my brother took the North road
And I stayed at home with Pa
Well my brother took the North road
And I stayed at home with Pa
Well the day my brother died
I quit the revolution
Yes the day my brother died
I dropped my guns and ran
CHORUS
