mamas prayin for brother john
she needs him home, hes her only son
but he lys dying on the bloody ground
the was no parade, he was never found the road to shiloh is paid with blood
the road to war it isnt long enough
the road is lonely ive never known
the road to shiloh to take me home when its all over all said n done
did i fight or did i run
to k** for glory live by the gun
the battles over nobody won the road to shiloh is paid with blood
the road to war it isnt long enough
the road is lonely ive never known
the road to shiloh to take me home
