| | Dixieland Lyrics Artist(Band):Steve Earle
And the Brits would hang me for a Fenian so I took me leave of there And I crossed the ocean in the "Arrianne" the vilest tub afloat And the captain's brother was a railroad man and he met us at the boat So I joined up with the 20th Maine like I said my friend I'm a fighting man And we're marchin' south in the pouring rain and we're all goin' down to Dixieland I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and we fight for Chamberlain ‘Cause he stood right with us when the Johnnies came like a banshee on the wind When the smoke cleared out of Gettysburg many a mother wept For many a good boy died there, sure, and the air smelted just like death I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and I'd march to hell and back again For Colonel Joshua Chamberlain - we're all goin' down to Dixieland I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and I damn all gentlemen Whose only worth is their father's name and the sweat of a workin' man Well we come from the farms and the city streets and a hundred foreign lands And we spilled our blood in the battle's heat Now we're all Americans I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and did I tell you friend I'm a fightin' man And I'll not be back this way again, ‘cause we're all goin' down to Dixieland If you find some error in Dixieland Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?
