Kelly's Irish Brigade -David Kincaid
Composed by ：Traditional arranged by David Kincaid
Listen all ye that hold communion
With southern Confederates bold
While I tell you of some men who for the Union
In the northern ranks were enrolled
They came to Missouri in their glory
And thought at their might we'd be dismayed
But they soon made them tell a different story
When they met Kelly's Irish Brigade
When they met Kelly's Irish Brigade me boys
When they met Kelly's Irish Brigade
Didn't those cowardly Lincoln-ites tremble
When they met with the Irish brigade
They have called us rebels and traitors
But themselves have thrown off the 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 each blue-hearted Irishman
In the ranks of Kelly's Irish Brigade
When they met with the Irish Brigade me boys
When they met with the Irish Brigade
Didn't those cowardly Lincoln-ites tremble
When they met with the Irish brigade
Well they dare not call us invaders
'Tis but state rights and liberties we ask
And Missouri we will ever defend her
No matter how hard be the task
Then let the Irishmen assemble
Let the voice of Missouri be obeyed
And northern fanatics may tremble
When again they meet Kelly's Irish Brigade
When they met with the Irish Brigade me boys
When they met with the Irish Brigade
Didn't those cowardly Lincoln-ites tremble
When they met with the Irish brigade
When they met with the Irish Brigade me boys
When they met with the Irish Brigade
Didn't those cowardly Lincoln-ites tremble
When they met with the Irish brigade
