Andersonville

June of 1864 Captured by the rebel foe Huddled on a greyback train to Georgia Devils knew what hell we'd see As they muzzled forth our company Into this cage of pine Full of miseries and terror Whoa-oh-oh I dream of reaching home again Your face within my hands Beyond these walls lies eternity I'm coming back again God knows how or when I'll find my way We'll live a simple life The day I bid farewell To Andersonville Months have wrought us skin and bone There'll be no exchange, we shiver cold As the rain pours down on the poisoned ground from heaven Here where hope's a memory Freedom fades to reverie Cursed to envy those who've closed their eyes forever Whoa-oh-oh, yeah I'll never see you face again Hope you'll understand? Past the deadline Lies eternity My broken soul awaits an end to the pain As I pass the line, may the bullet find it's mark Bid farewell to thee And Andersonville I'll never see your face again Hope you understand? Past the deadline lies eternity No coming back again, an end to the pain As I pass the line, may the bullet find it's mark Bid farewell to you And Andersonville
