Elton John feat. Leon Russell And Neil Young - Gone to Shiloh текст песни

[Leon Russell:]
Luther left us first light
Friday morning,
Little Dan and Becky
waved goodbye,
They're gonna have to
share the weight together,
Idle hands will see a good
farm slowly die

[Elton John, Leon Russell and Neil Young together:]
Gone to Shiloh,
For the Union,
Shoulder to shoulder,
Side by side,
Gone to Shiloh,
Hope springs eternal,
When flags and bullets
start to fly

[Neil Young:]
April's come and the air
smells fresh with rain,
They watched his shadow
fade around the bend,
He's headed for a different
kind of thunder,
And the stunned surprise
in the eyes of dying men

[Elton John, Leon Russell and Neil Young together:]
Gone to Shiloh,
For the Union,
Shoulder to shoulder,
Side by side,
Gone to Shiloh,
Time passes slowly,
When flags and bullets
start to fly

[Elton John:]
The old black rooster sang
him down that dirt road,
His step seemed bold, his
manner fancy-free,
I pray we see him ‘live and
well in the fall here,
Than that god forsaken
place in Tennessee

[Elton John, Leon Russell And Neil Young together:]
Gone to Shiloh,
For the Union,
Shoulder to shoulder,
Side by side,
Gone to Shiloh,
Men stand united,
When flags and bullets
start to fly

After all of this,
If we should prevail,
Heaven help the South,
When Sherman
comes their way
