Listen all ye that hold communion
With Southern Confederates who are bold,
And I will tell you of some men for the Union
Who in northern ranks were enrolled;
They came to Missouri in their glory
And thought at their might we'd be dismayed;
But they soon had a different story
When they met Kelly's Irish Brigade.

CHORUS:
When they met with the Irish Brigade me boys
When they met with the Irish Brigade
Didn't those cowardly Lincolnites tremble
When they met with the Irish Brigade.

They have called us rebels and traitors,
But themselves have thrown off that name of late.
They were called it by the English invaders
At home in the eve of ninety eight
The name to us is not a new one though,
Tis one that shall never degrade
And it's true-hearted Irishmen
In the ranks of Kelly's Irish Brigade.

CHORUS

Well they dare not call us invaders,
'Tis but state rights and liberty we ask;
And Missouri, we will ever defend her,
No matter how hard may be the task.
Then let the Irishmen assemble,
Let the voice of Missouri be obeyed;
And the northern fanatics will tremble
When again they meet Kelly's Irish Brigade.

CHORUS

Are you seriously promoting a Confederate war song here?

Please come home to your daddy, and explain yourself to me
Because I and you are man and wife, tryin' to start a family
I'm beggin' you baby, cut out that off the wall jive
If you can't treat me no better, it gotta be your funeral and my trial
When I and you first got together, 't was on one Friday night
We spent two lovely hours together, and the world knows alright
I'm just beggin' you baby, please cut out that off the wall jive
You know you gotta treat me better, if you don't it gotta be your funeral and my trial
Alright
The good Lord made the world and everything was in it
The way my baby love is some solid sentiment
She can love to heal the sick and she can love to raise the dead
You think I'm jokin' but you better believe what I say
I'm beggin' you baby, cut out that off the wall jive
Yeah, you gotta treat me better, or it gotta be your funeral and my trial

May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world

Did I hear a thunder?
Did I hear you break?
I can't quite remember
Just what guided me this way, oh, oh

May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world

The pines, they often whisper
They whisper what no tongue can tell
He who drinks from the deep water (ooh, ooh)
May he know the depths of the well (ooh, ooh)
Well

May I stand unshaken (may I)
Amid, amidst a crashing world (mmm)
May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world

Mmm, oh, traveler
What have you seen?
Were there crossroads
Where you been, where you been?
I once was standing tall
Now I feel my back's against the wall

May I stand unshaken (oh)
Amid, amidst a crashing world
May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world

Solo

The morning light
When it comes to me
It was there but I could not see
Am I to wander
As a wayward son?
Will the hunter be hunted
By the smoking gun? (oh)

May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world (world)
May I stand unshaken (may I)
Amid, amidst a crashing world (world)
May I stand unshaken (may I)
Amid, amidst a crashing world
