| | Fairwell Captain Lyrics Artist(Band):Kingston Trio
Chorus: Farewell to you, captain, the bravest in command. Goodbye to all the soldiers who didn't give a damn For we're goin' back to Richmond, buddy, leavin' here today. Gonna sell our rifles for a jug and get drunk along the way. 'Twas in Virginia harbor Gen'ral Parker disappeared, tied sleeping soundly to a tree. How we wept as we launched him and so cheerfully we cheered as the gen'ral drifted slowly out to sea. (Chorus) At the battle of Manasses, I had my certain chance to bravely fight the red and white and blue. I was so blasted brave I stuck branches in my pants and, yes, I played a tree 'til it was through. Please don't think that we are cowards. What a horrible suggestion! It's just that we don't feel that we belong. Bobby misses his dear mother, John has acid indigestion and I think I feel a migraine coming on. (Chorus) Farewell to you, captain, we're goin' to leave you now If you find some error in Fairwell Captain Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You.
