Gone and Never Returning

[Verse 1]
We marched all day and we marched all night
For we heard that the enemy was fleeing
And if all goes well we'll be gone in the morning
Gone and never returning

[Verse 2]
Our men did shoot and some did loot
Many-a town was burning
And if all goes well we’ll be gone in the morning
Gone and never returning

[Verse 3]
But our fortunes did turn when report was learned
That the enemy again was advancing
But if all goes well we'll be gone in the morning
Gone and never returning

[Verse 4]
Our lines were taken, all hope forsaken
The air was full of despairing
And if all goes well we'll be gone in the morning
Gone and never returning

[Verse 5]
A final stand is now at hand
Tonight we must go-a dying
And if all goes well we’ll be gone in the morning
Gone and never returning

[Outro]
And if all goes well we'll be gone in the morning
Gone and never returning
